lyrics

I'm happy to have learned, in a fraction of a turn
in the womb of mother earth, from you
including all the burns, delivered with a smirk
as if it didn't hurt, but who's the fool?

every gift will gather dust and suck up space
if without a purporse in your present place
shed a tear with every layer you strip away
undress duress stand nude and bless the memory

i'm happy to oblige the wonder in your eyes
of how we'd spend the time in between
i'd shrug and tilt my head, i'd fuck with my new phone
i'd shiver to the bone, so please go home

turn another stone with your bedazzled hand
leave me with my weight when i can hardly stand
shed a tear with every layer you strip away
undress duress stand nude and bless the memory
