-------------------------------------------
your words never come off clean
stepping stones to the gloom
I pride all the finer things
couldn't they be consumed?
--------------------------------------------
i want to be someone
i want to be new
--------------------------------------------
so i bought two reversed rings
for my new iron throat
and that fixed my countenance
now i'm only what i wrote
--------------------------------------------
i feel like a Klimt girl
lying with her hair
lying through her teeth
by the pool
i wanted to be someone
i tried to be new but
--------------------------------------------
Now it's time to
chase this split decision
but that's why im
never free
Fear
is just a cost
of acquisition
so i'll wait for peace
--------------------------------------------
Alimony
wouldnt cover
what i feel for you
but for honesty
im gonna plead
To your wisdom
not an offering
just another piece
---------------------------------------------
your words never come off clean
for all your merchantry
in Venice & its harborsides
this misdirection's still seen
so i call myself
in every modern way
every modern way
that i try
when the mirror comes
i wanna be new
----------------------------------------------
[i wanna be new
i wanna be new
i wanna be new
i wanna be new] x2
----------------------------------------------
nothing to leave but the scorchedout soil
by the right hand of god
spoke on my artifice in detail
but it's still coming soon
with any odds
-----------------------------------------------
