Needle and thread, flesh and bone
Spit and sinew, heartbreak is home
Your suture lines sparkle like diamonds
Bright stars to light my confinement
The bow is so old, it's horsehair is glue
Sent to the factory, just like me and you
So how come they stayed your execution?
The audience roars it's a standing ovation
I'll be your mess, you be mine
That was the deal that we had signed
I bought a hazmat suit to clean up your waste
Gas masks, gloves to keep us safe
But now I'm alone in an empty room
Staring down immaculate doom
The clothes are packed off to Goodwill
I said my goodbyes up on that hill
The house is empty, the furniture sold
Soon your smells will decay to mold
Don't know why I bother calling, ain't nobody answering
Don't know why I bother singing, ain't nobody listening
First you inspect me
Then you dissect me
Then you reject me
First you inspect me
Then you dissect me
Then you reject me
I wait for the day
That you'll resurrect me
Barrel of the gun, rounds one two three
She says I have to pick: choose you, or choose me
Metal to the temple, the explosion is deafening
Lick the blood that covers me
She's the last one standing
There's a piece of lead where my heart should be
Doctor said too dangerous to take out
You'd better just leave it be
Body grew back around, a miracle, praise be
Now, if only I could get past airport security
The boogeyman sleeps on your side of the bed
Whispers in my ear: "Better off dead."
Fills my dreams with sirens and lights of regret
Kisses me gently when I wake up in a sweat
You crossed the water, left me ashore
It killed me enough, but you wanted more
You blew up the bridge, a mad terrorist
Waved from your side, threw me a kiss
I started to follow but realized to late
There was nothing but air beneath my feet
Are you happy in your misery?
Resting peaceful in desolation?
It's the final tie that binds us
The source of my consolation
Someone wake me up when it's over
When the evening silence softens golden
Just lay me on a bed of clover
Oh, I need help with this burden
First you inspect me
Then you dissect me
Then you reject me
First you inspect me
Then you dissect me
Then you reject me
