lyrics

this voice only speaks when it's poisoned.
only finds out in the morning,
it's just a pale little light.
you leave with the lovely and the lessened,
only stays when you let them,
only knows what you like.

'don't go', says the cold arms to the floorboards,
i need ya just a bit more,
i can't tell you why.
so still, the joyful barely moving.
who thought we'd ever choose this.
can't say we never tried

that's when your legs broke free
the cacophony,
of sawtooth waves and linen sheets,
a winter's remedy,
straight lines go circling,
i was a boy, you kept me clean
attack and release,
come now my chemical relief,
i was your boy, you kept me clean.
