Lyrics

We planted our seeds to see how they would grow In a swampy cave where no one goes We stared in the dark as the months slowly passed And heard every remark as the cave would expand We planted our seeds to see how they would grow But our mind was weak without control Our thoughts would speak in a toxic tone To make it clear we will always be alone We watched from a screen and could finally see What could live from a single evening We counted its fingers and its toes Then wondered if it could ever truly know... But your blood never stays inside my skin And you are too frail to ignore my opinions So let's drench the cave in neglect and nicotine Then wait to see how much it can bleed Where is the fun if you can't see a piece? Blood is okay, but I want a pair of little feet Lets penetrate this malignant womb And transform it into a maternal tomb Just one thrust won't be enough To scramble our insides or this infants trust Lights flash, and we're forced to retreat In a careening hospital bed surrounded by our screams Your lifes biggest regret is the one in which you bleed Microscopic bones and hearts, and microscopic teeth Mine was the thought that I was trapped in your head Until I realized freedom is another part of death So this is what happens when you die Greedy hands scavenge through your insides
