1.
Telescopic, microscopic Dearly beloved, I’ve seen it all I know the height of the waves I know the depth of seas I see what lies on the surface I cut to the heart of things I see the forest fire Know the blight within the trees So please excuse me if my perspective Makes me seem a little bit crazy
2.
Go ahead, play holy I know what makes you horny You play your game of secrets I know the entire rulebook Glowing eyes in the dark see everything Far be it from me To pretend that I’m clean But I can smell every sin You try to hide with perfume
3.
My fingertips are covered In red ink So even if you wash your hands of me My fingerprints remain Even if I disappear And you forget my name I’ll never be gone because Everything I touch is stained The ink is always wet Drops of me will echo endless
4.
You’ll squeeze even a rotten apple dry Rather than let it rest Maybe I’d rather leave a stain Than let you take another drop Of blood you curse yourself Nothing’s felt better than Painting my smile in blood Across your greedy fucking walls
5.
I’m a dead bird flying Got no wind beneath my wings But the air my feathers flap Ain’t nobody wanna eat crow Ain’t nobody want my name in their mouth Ain’t got no friends Got no family Only got these nasty creature comforts To keep me cozy in this grave I dug
6.
Only thing that daddy ever taught me Was never trust the hand that holds the keys to open up the gate for anyone but themselves If I can’t ever have the keys to the city I might as well learn how they’re made and given I’ll never get let into the castle But I know who’s blood oils up the locks
7.
Arriving when called Like blood to the surface Sanguine shades So soft and horrible Branching in the light of spring Caught in between Red falling slowly Sure as the sun will shine Violent colours Flowers and teeth

Got no wind beneath my wings
