Take me down
Where the baptized drown
So they say
(Surface dweller shallow swimmer)
Let's lick my wounds
So they say I killed a man
So they say I took his head
So they say he was a scourge
And all the world are his children
The best thing they ever did in this life was let me live
Digging swiftly out of Hell, madness helps me save myself
Crooked spoons on every wall, genocide lines the hall
Ten gauge needles and a prayer
Smearing sin everywhere
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
(Surface dweller, shallow swimmer)
Let's lick my wounds
We feed until we're engorged
Let them sleep, I need some more
Nooses made of human hair, bodies falling from thin air
We speak and preach forbidden truth
This is it, we're through with you
I'm choosing to lose my mind
Rape the blade and call it wine
Crooked spoons on every wall, genocide lines the hall
Ten gauge needles and a prayer
Smearing sin everywhere
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
(Surface dweller shallow swimmer)
Take me where the baptized drown
I sleep too deep for you to wake me
I sleep too deep for you to wake me
I sleep too deep for you
You'll never wake me
My lips are kissed with tiny stitches
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
The venom that slips from your lips
The tiny lies, shining in your eyes
Pain in my veins
Shallow, hallow, incarcerated Soul
I sleep too deep for you to wake me up
