If I did like Eve and left
the hard bony ribs of Adam
would splinter and crack
The sun would hide itself
Lost, you'll be wondering
the streets in your mind's night
But you couldn't care less
No, not the one who hides
silver slivers in your mouth
Where the bite left me wounded
poisoned, weakened
Frozen and cold
If my restless fingers
should press the proverbial button
a ray of cleansing light
will herald your destruction
and left me to pick through
the bones of your abject humiliation
But you couldn't care less
No, not the one who hides
silver slivers in your mouth
Where the bite left me wounded
poisoned, weakened
Frozen and cold
If I decide to welcome
the sleepless nights
you kept hidden from me
Will you keep me sane
and lucid, grounded in love
with a broken heartstring?
No, you couldn't care less
No, not the one who hides
silver slivers in your mouth
Where the bite left me wounded
poisoned, weakened
Frozen and cold
