lyrics

amuse me
you got a good mask
it’s pretty
your face grows long and it eyes the wet grass
if i learn your alphabet
i’m closer
to the twisted capsule that burns in your head

he’ll keep crawling till he makes his mind up
and now i’m falling for his game, i signed up
and he’ll keep rubbing till his skin gets raw
making imprints with his innocent paws
and i’ll sit back while he tries so hard
molding new pawns from his malleable heart
but he’s a tough boy, keeps his gun slung close
and i’m still a sucker for the one who let go

abuse me
put on your big gloves
it’s easy
to throw your hands at the things you can’t touch
but if i learn your alphabet
i’m closer
to the twisted scar that’s blistering red

he’ll keep crawling till he makes his mind up
but i’m not falling for the game he lined up
and he’ll keep rubbing till his skin gets raw
making imprints with his innocent paws
and i’ll sit back while he tries so hard
molding new pawns from his malleable heart
but he’s a tough boy, keeps his gun in his hand
and i’m still a sucker for the one i can’t stand
