Pridelands


I don't wanna feel your skin, I don't deserve your taste
Oh and I can't wait to stay inside and feel my body waste away

The ceilings falling and my eyes cave in
Nobody's listening and I can't tell my blood from the nitroglycerin
I find it sobering to be defiled so easily
I know I should feel pain, but it's eluding me

If you'd stop for a moment to watch my skin peel out
Then I promise you will get your wish
You're gonna see me open up
But all the wires and the circuits could entangle us
In a fabricated love

I don't have the will to love you anymore
This selfish solemn vow I swore takes hold
Why do you say that you care when you aren't listening?
Why aren't you listening?

I know it's all for show
This skin, these muscles and the way they grow
I find it sobering to be defiled so easily
There is a part of me that crystallized inside of your gaze

I don't wanna feel your skin
I don't deserve your taste
My eyes, they fixate on the sky and it's electric grace
And it changes me

But this is written inside of my genetic code
I can't erase the segments that have made me cold
They've made me cold
