Tar and Oil

Tiny violet, futile canvas,
Black ink hides in lifeless lips.
Hiss of acid, cold cynic,
I taste your throat
and feel my grip
[Pre-Chorus]
Are you satisfied now?
Harm the tidal bite — ah ahhh ahhhh
[Chorus]
Amines spinning in the corpse,
Your proteins in the mix.
Are you chewing me for your fix?
I’ll break this vial — for you.
Tar and oil, melting sinew

Amines spinning in the corpse,
Your proteins in the mix.
Are you chewing me for your fix?
I’ll break this vial — for you.
Tar and oil, melting sinew


[Verse 2]
You give me pain, I come undone,
Touch obscene, plasma runs.
Is this another game you play
Another mask behind the scene?

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you satisfied now?
Harm the tidal bite — ah.
[Chorus]
Amines spinning in the corpse,
Your proteins in the mix.
Are you chewing me for your fix?
Tar and oil, melting sinew,
I’ll break this vial — for you.
Are you chewing me for your fix?
Are you chewing me for your fix?
Chewing me for your fix?

[Bridge]
Pull me in, every shadow,
No escape, no mercy.
This hell is ours,
Our hell, our hollow,
Our tortured sorrow.
[Final Chorus]
Amines spinning in the corpse,
Your proteins in the mix.
Your body is dark poetry,
I think — it always has been.
always has been
dark poetry
always has been
