How It Gets In

Bring on the bandages, pressure the wound It’s a bright, bright red that colors us in Good for the invalids, downers, and killers In sick, sick beds and silicone drips Buzzing towards me Spirit awakens A once lived glitch And that’s how it gets in It’s how it gets in, It’s how it gets in We’re invisible lovers It’s how it gets in, It’s how it gets in To invisible lovers Cowering youngsters, elastic and covered In feather-down hair all standing on end Even the others' thick skin bears the evidence Cuts so thin, how does it get in? How does it get in? There’s a place where you live It’s how it gets in, It’s how it gets in Even invisible lovers It’s how it gets in, It’s how it gets in To invisible lovers It’s how it gets in, It’s how it gets in To invisible lovers Opened by instruments, closed by a thread There’s a space in the stitch
