Lyrics
Neck, chest, waist to floor, easy to take, you could take me in fours Make me a deal, a day a piece, take it all, just stay a week
I'll take you in pieces, we can take all apart I've suffered shipwrecks right from the start I've been underwater, breathing out and in I think I'm losing where you end and I begin
Basic space, open air Don't look away when there's nothing there
I'm setting us in stone, piece by piece, before I'm alone Air tight, before we break, keep it in, keep us safe
It's a pool of boiling wax, I'm getting in let it set Got to seal this in, can't adjust, can't relearn Got to keep what I have, preserve
Basic space, open air Don't look away when there's nothing there
Hot wax has left me with a shine wouldn't know if I'd been left behind Second skin Second skin
I can't let it out, I still let you in I can't let it out, I still let you in
