lyrics

In a dream you called out to him, and like a fool he came to the sound of his name. It surrounded everyone in the room with reflections off the walls it's found in the mirror where you were staring so blank and porcelain waiting to reenter the noisy room and pour champagne down your throats until you were finally found. And the words he chose to speak to you tasted like vinegar.

And the actors in the room don't require much attention because they'll parts whether you look or not so keep careful watch.

You walked to a white-walled room and undressed each other with trembling hands under an ivory ceiling, there's a story carved into it.

It was of a hunter and a beast, though he threw spears was lain to rest, by teeth that cut his neck and chest and left his back red and scratched. And you left that place pale and took a cab home but the wine you pour and the pills you take can't kill the corpse you've been living in.

So you draw a bath and slip inside, you want the water to cleanse your skin. You lie awake in your bed all night until the day shines through the window and you remember you're still alive. And now you can't feel anything and you can't remember when you did.
