Wire Mother, my breath you sustain
Shitting my pants, my will to leave
Sweet nourishment only gets you so far
Pull back my precious skin
And let the insects come right in

This is a peaceful protest

Rip the flesh from my bones
I don’t need this skin
Cut my colour and I’m ready to go

My hands are so unclean
Acrid smells and fallacy
Baby button now my infect
I’ve got no disconnect

And I’m so afraid, I’m coming in to kill
Going down the drain, circling the spout
It’s all that I can take
Didn’t realise ‘til now

Secret handshake, special ingredient, pancake
Where would you lie as thick as your eyes?
Come with me now if you want to survive
Nose dripping, give it a wipe
A tear forms in the pit of your eye
Cut down and laid to rest
I can’t say I’ve tried my best

My hands are so unclean
Acrid smells and fallacy
Baby button now my infect
I’ve got no disconnect

And I’m so afraid, I’m coming in to kill
Going down the drain, circling the spout
It’s all that I can take
Didn’t realise ‘til now

Don’t change your mind, I’m following mine
Now I lie to find
That I die, right, right?
And I’d cry
If you didn’t see me die

And I’m so afraid, I’m coming in to kill
Going down the drain, circling the spout
It’s all that I can take
Didn’t realise ‘til now
Don’t realise, anyhow
