Lyrics

   I could give you a dozen
   
fresh,


 cut, 
 pink, or red, or white 
 I wonder if they knew what they 
 would grow to become

   I could give you a dozen


 fresh,
cut,
pink, or red, or white 
 I wonder if they knew what they


   would grow to become

   become become

   become become


 be be be become

   you’ll have to cut it down


 and burn me into splinters 
 or I’ll unwrap the string


   that was me,

   around your finger.


 And I’ll hang you in


   your bedroom burial ground

   there is a taste for blood

   and it’s something deep inside


 there is a taste for blood


   and it’s deep inside

   become become

   become become


 be be be become

   I don’t ever want god

   to hear our screams

   and mistake them for prayers.

   And you know I’m loaded

   but not which chamber


 touch me and i’ll go 
 Click click click click click 
 Click click click click click 
 Click click click click click

   there is a taste for blood

   and it’s something deep inside

   there is a taste for blood
   
and it’s deep inside

   become become

   become become


 be be be become

   And you know I’m loaded


 But not which chamber


   Touch me and i’ll go


 Click click click click click 
 Click click click click click


   Click click click click click

   I’m born villain

   don’t pretend to be a victim


 I’m born villain 
 don’t pretend to be a victim 
 I’m born villain


   don’t pretend to be a victim


 I’m born villain


   don’t pretend to be a victim
