lyrics

I can throw a random mess of words
I can speak until my tongue falls off
maybe I'll have said something that somehow
changes everything, or changes me
I can paint a pretty page with
colors bright but don't mean anything
I can sing sweet nothings in your ear
but I can't bear to look in a mirror anymore
because everything about myself has become
a chore;
an exercise in waking up
and I don't wanna do it
I don't wanna do it

you can speak your pretty words
you can shout your pretty words
you can speak all over me

I can carve a monument
I can put your face on it
I can set your name in stone
and maybe my heart is made of stone
but your heart is gone
and this weird affair has gone too long
but I still love it
can't leave it
I just can't live it
you don't wanna hear it
and I don't wanna say it
I don't wanna do it
it's all bullshit
and there's no easy way through it
you can do better than this
you don't need my ego anymore
and you don't need to be a whore to
get what you want
and I'm not what you want
so call off the haunt
cause after this,
there's nothing left to kill
but your own self will
and destiny
shall become nothing

you can speak your pretty words
you can shout your pretty words
you can speak all over me
and you will
you will you will you will you will you will you will
oh you will
talk me into anything

I can carve a monument
I can put your name on it
I can set your name in stone
and maybe my heart is made of stone
but your heart is gone

"What do you get when folk music gets drunk, and inadvertently confuses Shoegazey Ambient Electronica for it's normal fuck buddy, rock music, booty calls SAE at two in the morning, forgets to wear a condom, and gets SAE pregnant?
You get Radio Wire Empire." - Tramps Upstairs ... more
