Curse (Bridge Extended)
[Intro] Kerosene carousel, vertebrae lullaby, Static in my septembe-e-e-e-r veins. Clock-claw, click-clack, cryptic calcium, I fold my shadow into six first names. Mmm-trauma-trauma-traumatique, Velvet voltage chewing through my teeth. I saw tomorrow blinking sideways Through a microwave cathedral sleep. [Verse 1] Ribcage origami in a traffic-light eclipse, Monochrome mosquitoes kissing serotonin lips. I tongue-twist tungsten through a paper-cut parade, While the mannequins recite the debts my skeletons have paid. Bliss-blister blacklisted blistering bliss, Linguistically liquid in a labyrinth lisp. I’m a moth made of math in a salt-stain suit, Singing syllables backward through a bluetooth noose. Paracetamol parables scattered in the sink, Every vowel tastes violet every consonant drinks. I stitched seven thunderstorms into my reflection, Now mirrors need permission for eye contact connection. [Pre-Chorus] Ah-ah-axiomatic acid attack, Pulse in the pavement pulling me back. Synapse gymnastics elastic collapse, Heaven mispronounced my name in the gaps. Fracture the fractal, unravel the static, Panic mechanics in automatic habits. I kissed the glitch and the glitch kissed louder, Now my bloodstream tastes like burnt flower powder. [Chorus] Ohhhhhh, Velocirhetorical venom in my veins, Dancing in a hexcode hurricane. Cry-cry-crystalline counterfeit lungs, I speak in semaphore with severed tongues. La-la-laceration lullaby flood, Moonlight dripping gasoline blood. Neon kneecaps, nicotine stars, I swallowed the engine and coughed up Mars. [Drop] Tk-tk-tk-tk-tktrrrr-ahh Chrome-chrome-chiasm, Vanta-black phantom syntax spasm. Echolalia avalanche, digital dirt, Heartbeat hyperventilating through the fabric of hurt. [Verse 2] I orbit awkwardly around invisible knives, Alphabetically drowning in mechanical tides. Every hallway bends like a guilty violin, Every ceiling fan confesses where the angels have been. Bilingual hallucinations in a freezer-burn choir, Morse-code mascara melting telephone wire. My bloodstream breakdances in a burning hotel, While the elevators whisper “you’re not leaving this well.” Sycophantic cymbals in a seizure ballet, Carbon-copy comets in a taxidermy rain. I wear twenty-seven unfinished faces to sleep, And every one of them wakes up screaming in Greek. [Bridge] Can you hear the piano teeth? Can you hear the iodine breeze? Can you hear the velvet panic Breathing through the Can you hear the piano teeth? Can you hear the iodine breeze? Can you hear the velvet panic Breathing through the TV screen? Can you feel the static sorrow Crawling underneath my skin? Every color fades to shadows Every ending starts again. Can you hear the broken headlights Humming like a dying prayer? I've been talking to the silence But there's nobody there. Can you see the paper moonlight Falling through my empty hands? I keep reaching for the memory As it slips like grains of sand. And the walls are getting closer, And the room forgets my name. I'm still searching through the echoes, But they never sound the same.
