lyrics

Rips all that's left of the bleeding heart, the satin cloth is stained amongst all that remains in tact
The fact-or in the text it is unfolding left to right, the sinking right to indite lies upon unyielding minds

You led me into a river
Closed my eyes so I could see clearer(x3)
You led me into a river

The drip stop started the notion of enduring hearts that flee and get thrown under the bus
And the smallest of inklings that toils upon the indecision, distractions of the mind
You let my body fall

You led me into a river
Closed my eyes so I could see clearer (x3)

Close my eyes
In my disguise (x3)
Close my eyes

Oh you disgust the normals and the elegants away,
In my, my present state of mind you must stay
lay awake (you must lay awake)

The form in, the form in which you lead has gone astray
indistinguishable, from the train wreck where you lay

Step up to that throne you sit upon, above it all

Oh you discuss the morals and the ethics in my, my discourse
This coarse abrasion scrapes the pain away

That leaves you, numb and in the corner of my brain
Deceives you, to hear you out of pity, out of shame

Must you look, rusty hook, the earth shook, and it all fades away
