Lyrics

[verse] The ink is on my fingers but the blood is on yours you have tried to crack me open but you’ve never reached the source you can wear me like a lipstick play my nerves like a harp but if you really wanna know me then you need something sharp we should get this straight like the blade of a knife dig your nails into my back and scar me for life [verse] write a complex storyboard in ancient hieroglyphics lipsync to my pulse and call it basic physics split the atom, split my mind crack the shell and you will find the salty seed beneath you wanna grind between your teeth the truth your tongue desires like the licks of a thousand fires I will force feed you these metaphors leave a taste of burning tires [verse] You leave a souvenir a print to show how close you came a flaming red through thin veneer marks the ending of the game you pierced my suits of armor with your vicious boa eyes every certified snake charmer was crushed between your thighs thought I had built some sturdy walls to withstand external pressure but as the final brickwork falls there is no scale around to measure the damage of your touch it left me naked, skinned and battered but I don’t mind it all that much ‘cause that night was all that mattered [hook] the damage of your touch it left me naked, skinned and battered but I don’t mind it all that much ‘cause that night was all that mattered
