Skin & Dirt

from Be Yourself Like Us by Nothinghead

lyrics

Do you remember when I put the first dogs down and we had so much life away i said everyday we can do this art and we’ll get away and
you probably should’ve been scared back then but I wouldn’t tell you anything the fucked up plans i’ve been dreaming about you drowning
all the pretty faces fucked by the dirt stillborn skeletons i got memories of them little hands just clawing at me but
I feel so good with that rope wrapped around your neck and I’m pulling back feeling you god please tell me what to do next
I don’t believe that you could ever do bad
she said don’t worry we’ll fuck when we’re sad
so please don’t leave me i need you to breathe
she’ll never know I’m her only disease
so I put her on the table with the knife drawn up and I said don’t push your luck don’t push your luck I’ll do to you what life did to me to make me give it all up
I can’t see the better part of things but your skin works wonders for me blood I keep it’s better than old dreams
can you feel this art
the horror that has stricken beats of your heart
high off face that is blue
cause trees don’t burn like how i see you do
skin and rotting eyes
the dirt keeps a hold of these lives
cut yourself into me
show me how you breathe
cut yourself into me
cause trees don’t burn like these memories
dirt keeps a hold on the earth
dirt keeps a hold of what i’ve done
Do you remember when I put the first dogs down and we had so much life away i said everyday we can do this art and we’ll get away and
you probably should’ve been scared back then but I wouldn’t tell you anything the fucked up plans i’ve been dreaming about you drowning
all the pretty faces fucked by the dirt stillborn skeletons i got memories of them little hands just clawing at me but
I feel so good with that rope wrapped around your neck and I’m pulling back feeling you god please tell me what to do next
I don’t believe that you could ever do bad
she said don’t worry we’ll fuck when we’re sad
so please don’t leave me i need you to breathe
she’ll never know I’m her only disease
