lyrics

sibyl i'm so thirsty, listen to the river
every word you scream is borrowed from a whisper
lead me up a stair case, touch me in a dark room
i am not a kingdom, you are not a full moon

and really i just want to die
without those pearls that were my eyes

father karras, i can't take another love song
foaming at the mouth i scribbled out a poem:
"heaven was a young girl, spinning in the moonlight
nothing was an ocean, jump if it feels right"

lovely, she's so lovely, rotting in her bathtub
if im gonna die, i'm gonna die in love so
pick me up at midnight, put your favorite dress on
we could live forever, all before the sun dawns

swear we'll raise some hell tonight
just me you and the third who walks beside

goodnight, ladies, goodnight, goodnight

i'm young at heart but old at blood
we merge and know all things happened at once
