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
