[intro]
Turn me into stone like Medusa
Blind me like Oedipus
Drain my blood like Dracula
Ware me down like Pablo Picasso
[chorus]
Every once in a while something changes
It’s tainted
Lately I can see it behind your smile
Your testing me with trials
Throwing me into your thermite
Yea
So you can have my life
[reverb slow echoing dark violin solo]
[verse1]
Dig your nails into me
Clench on and never let go
Cover me in wax
Let it dry fast
Stick me in your permafrost
Put me under dry ice
And preserve what we had
Maybe in a different life
We can love
Like no one’s watching
No regrets no background emotions
Just us in the middle of our ocean
So when you loosen the ropes to let me go
And I don’t run
Will you let me
Back in
Or tell me the words
I don’t want to here
Just like before
All I wanted was more
More love
More touch
More pain
But all I got was the rain
When you stuck the knife
And I felt the chocking
In my throat
Gave me a gun you loaded
So tonight my love
It’s just
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
[guitar solo]
[chorus]
Every once in a while something changes
It’s tainted
Lately I can see it behind your smile
Your testing me with trials
Throwing me into your thermite
Yea
So you can have my life
[verse2]
Ooooh
[scream]
I CUT MY OWN WRIST
[whisper]
did you see me in your mirror
[scream]
LIVING IN YOUR SHADOW
[whisper]
Do you feel me lurk around you
[scream]
MY BLACK EYES SEE YOUR BEAUTY
[whisper]
Do you love how I am now
[drum build up]
[SCREAM]
BELLA CIAO
AAAAAGGGGGHHHHH
BELLA CIAO
[BREAKDOWN]
Bella
Bella
Bella
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
[chorus]
Every once in a while something changes
It’s tainted
Lately I can see it behind your smile
Your testing me with trials
Throwing me into your thermite
Yea
So you can have my life
[outro]
Wrap your hands around my throat
Take my air
I know you don’t care
I know your deep in lies
Make me feel when you cry
I see the signs
No outlet
But I don’t care
I like your pain
So cut me open again
Lift me up
And let me fall again
I love your greed
I buy you with my flesh
So you can put me to death
Till there’s nothing left
So just
Turn me into stone like Medusa
Blind me like Oedipus
Drain my blood like Dracula
Ware me down like Pablo Picasso
Oooooooh
Oh
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
Bella ciao
