lyrics

Touch me with a blade, you know I feel
The carvings you engrave upon my heel

All ambitions speaking low conspire in me
As prophets from your dreams of apathy

I trade my breath for clever tricks and false starts

And all my parts are spun like the wool that scratches me raw
You're at the loom, your needle's my law

Touch me with a blade, you know I feel
The carvings you engrave upon my heel
