Lyrics

[00:22.000] I'm a larva wrapped in silk
[00:27.000] I am dying in burning flesh
[00:32.000] Let me out, let me ache
[00:38.000] Let me out, let me ache and itch
[00:45.000] Get me out of this suit
[00:50.000] I go to a funeral every day
[00:56.000] I follow these people around
[01:00.000] I follow these people like a rat's tail
[01:07.000] I carry their caskets, I sing them goodnight
[01:13.000] They're better off without me
[01:20.000] Beauty is poisonous
[01:25.000] Disruptive
[01:30.000] Oh,heaven must be an iron rose
[01:36.000] Unfolding
[01:41.000] Oh,let me in,let me out! Let me in,Let me out!
[01:57.000] This is a retirement
[02:02.000] From plumbing the veins of rats and kings
[02:07.000] Let the stars be my eyes, then
[02:12.000] Unchain the knuckles and latches, unbutton my wrists
[02:19.000] My skin so thin you can see black holes within
[02:25.000] My eyes so clear they light up the sky
[02:31.000] And sometimes I'll bend into the silicone veil
[02:37.000] And enter this world again as a ghost
[02:44.000] Beauty is poisonous
[02:49.000] Disruptive
[02:54.000] Oh heaven must be an iron rose
[03:00.000] Unfolding
[03:05.000] Oh,let me in,let me out! Let me in,let me out!
[03:20.000] Let me out!
[03:25.000] Let me out!
[03:31.000] Let me out!
[03:36.000] Let me out!
[03:41.000] Let me out!
[03:47.000] Let me out!
[03:52.000] Let me out!
[03:58.000] Let me out!
[04:03.000] Let me out!
[04:08.000] Let me out!
[04:14.000] Let me out!
