lyrics

Well, I never knew a life could be so wilted and pale,
while grounded in the darkest soil.
It's like wind through tattered sails.

And I swear that you're not dying.
It just feels that way in a cocoon
wrapped in fibers spun from women's breath.
But awake my friend, awake my friend soon.

And I will.
And I will.

Cupid's arrow hit the ground,
and I knew it was his the tip was profound.
All corkscrews and razor blades,
and some inscribing as well:

It said to all my fair masochists: You're blood's being held in a well,
Where all us gods and goddesses dip our paint brushes in,
and paint beautiful shadows that heal as they cling to your skin.
