She says she barely sleeps And if she does it's fitfully Hears footsteps in the leaves And if she dreams she dreams of The sounds you'll never speak The words left out between the beat Of clashing teeth and tongues The roar of background hum That blooms inside her listening ears To be the noise she wants to hear She only wants to do you proud Only wants to make you proud now And in a stranger's bed Head next to stranger's head She chokes on words that won't come out The TV's turned up far too loud, too loud So here we go again Head on the block again The guillotine has just quickened pace Teeth sink in to leave their taste, of blood And her head hits the floor Lips still moving, mouthing to implore "You're all I want, you're all I want, you're all I want And all I want to..." She says she barely sleeps And if she does it's fitfully Hears footsteps in the leaves And if she dreams she dreams of The sounds you'll never speak The words you leave between the beat Of clashing teeth and tongues The roar of background hum That blooms inside her listening ears To be the song she wants to hear She only wants to do you proud Only wants to do you proud now And in a foreign bed Head next to foreign head The sad song in a minor key The sad song in a minor key, please
