lyrics

It's an inward facing circle
Backs turned, like talking to a brick wall
I've learned everything that you stand for offends me

You're thicker than the layers on your face
You're unrecognisable until they've smothered the lights
The hand of God couldn't slap you into place
so lose the tears, lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time

Looks like Janus has a bad mouth
out of which sickly laughter pours like syrup until we drown
until we breath no more
A V-neck screams in disgust
But I just turn my face away from you and not towards
A hard shell cracks inside,
But you're just jelly waiting to gush from the wounds that she's caused

You glide like a misinformed deity
A goddess, at least in your mind's eye
I'd much rather stick with the lone survivors

You're thicker than the layers on your face
You're unrecognisable until they've smothered the lights
The hand of God couldn't slap you into place
so lose the tears, lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time

You're thicker than the layers on your face
You're unrecognisable until they've smothered the lights
The hand of God couldn't slap you into place
so lose the tears, lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time

Lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time
Lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time
Lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time
Lose the whining
Lose the stepladder that goes back in time
