Lyrics

    The beauty spot was borrowed and
    Now my sweet knife rusts tomorrow.
    I'm a confession that is waiting to be heard.
    
    Burn your empty rain down on me
    Whisper your deathbeat so softly
    We bend our knees
    At the altar of my ego
    
    You drained my heart
    And made a spade
    But there's still traces of me
    in your veins
    You drained my heart
    And made a spade
    But there's still traces of me
    in your veins
    
    All my lilies' mouths are open
    Like they're begging for dope
    And hoping
    Their bitter petal chant,
    "We can kick , you won't be back."
    
    I'm a diamond that is tired
    Of all the faces I've acquired
    We must secure the shadow
    Ere the substance fades
    
    You drained my heart
    And made a spade
    But there's still traces of me
    in your veins
    You drained my heart
    And made a spade
    But there's still traces of me
    in your veins
    And we said, 'til we die
    And we said, 'til we die
