Earwig - Both Of Us Screaming

and this is just the start
I took a look at myself
but i'm like everyone else
and i ache, oh god, i ache

and so i took my scissors
my needle and my cotton
and started to cut away
the bits that were rotten

i cut it hurt
it didn't quite work
and so i take the cut from me
and wrap it around my wrists

and scream, scream

then take your hands from around my waist
and wrap them around my neck
and squeeze until my face turns blue

i haven't look this good in years
and now i can't see what i'm doing
i can't feel what i'm doing
i don't know what i'm doing
i don't care what i'm doing

i don't care about all the things you say
are real because i'm too self-obsessed
to feel your splintered bones your aching headache
punctured skin and swollen head
shameful thoughts and shameful heads
simple acts and simple beds
like all that's pure is painted red
these needs are better left unfed
one of us is fleeting
and both of us are screaming
screaming
both of us are screaming

and this is just the start
