Metal Eye |
You know what you’re doing |
You know what this is about |
You look in her metal eye |
You kiss her platinum mouth |
Like frozen chrome and mercury thigh |
You kiss her mouth |
As cold as a prize |
She’s a dying machine |
So bless her skin |
And bless the nightmare she’s living in |
Open your mouth |
All that comes is desire |
She wants to die with her eyelashes on fire |
She hides her star and turns her ring around |
She hides her wires when she goes underground |
She knows what she’s doing |
She’s almost done |
You think this is tragedy |
She thinks this is fun |
I’m dead inside |
She’s the girl you don’t understand |
She’s the girl with the see-through hands |
When she was born there must have been a spark |
But there’s nothing there now in her cold chrome heart |
She watches you flourish |
She listens to you fall |
She sees you scrawl your love in blood on the wall |
She bites the bullet |
So watch it go off |
And watch it explode |
In her platinum mouth |
You know what you’re doing |
You know what this is about |
You look in her metal eye |
You kiss her platinum mouth |
Like frozen chrome and mercury thigh |
You kiss her mouth |
As cold as a prize |
I’m dead inside |
Don’t bother peeking at what’s under her dress |
You should know by now she gets by with less |
Your last night together desire arrives like a terrorist |
When flesh meets metal all that breaks is the fist |
When she was born there must have been a spark |
But there’s nothing there now in her cold chrome heart |
She bites the bullet |
So watch it go off |
And watch it explode |
In her platinum mouth |
At 3,200 degrees platinum liquefies |
Secretly, I’m dead inside |
Let me kiss you, let me bless you |
At 3,200 degrees, secretly, platinum liquefies |
I’m dead inside |
Let me kiss you, let me bless you |
Secretly |
I’m dead inside (Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
With her metal eye |
(Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
I’m dead inside |
She can’t cry |
With her metal eye |
(Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
I’m dead inside |
(Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
I’m dead inside |
Secretly |
I’m dead inside (Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
Secretly |
I’m dead inside (Let me kiss you, let me bless you) |
