For My Embalmer Lyrics

No one's ever been this delicate with me

Open my eyes so I can see

Who's touching my veins, watching my blood drain

Who's loving me to sleep

Hide my damage, fix my face

Help my body find its place

Turn up my lips, tell me your secrets

They'll come with me to the grave

If I had known

That all it would take was the end of it all

To have some worth

Then I wouldn't have cried when I was leaving the world

I hope you know I won't complain

If I decompose and you're to blame

Abandon your duties, lay down next to me

Grab my hand, feel no shame

Well I don't know

How you'll come with me but promise you'll go?

I'll wait around

You and some time are all I have now

I can feel the bugs in my bones

They found me fast, they're making their home

But this can't last, I'm no good alone

Hold me now, don't let me go

I don't mind the dirt but I miss the sun

Went swimming in the sewers and I found my blood

I think the rats are drinking it

I'm scared that no one's missing me

Touch me again I don't think I'm real

Touch me again I don't think I'm real

Touch me again I don't think I'm real

And I can't feel I'm losing my mind

Something about decay is so nice

Sweet detachment for such a small price

Just a life that was never mine
