Slit Wrists Remain

lyrics

slit wrists never count on this,
never hoping to persist
i need blood and i’m out of spit,
everything’s too much, all of it
a new pain, a new ache
a new way to stay the same
i give up on this place
i give up, but i still remain
this is getting to be too much;
i can’t rest with what we’ve done
ready to float like an astronaut,
ready to burst from what we’ve wrought
no point in carrying words,
when you know they’ll never be heard
no point in giving birth,
when you know what this life is worth
a new loss, a new pain
a new place, we stay the same
a new god, a new hate
a new way we stay the same
christ can listen, you won’t call
i don’t want to be anything at all
walk 12 steps with flowers in hand
new blood listens to old demands
fade with fog right out of view
draining blood that pumps through you
a new heart, a new stain
a new place, we stay the same
i give up on this fate, i give up, won’t get away
slit wrists remain, slit wrists remain
slit wrists remain, can’t rinse these stains
a new love, a new hate
a new way to stay the same
a sick heart, the same pain
when you’re gone, i’ll still remain
bloodied and numb, cut up and dumb —
i still remain
