lyrics

you're the canvas and i'm the paint
while i lie all over you, lie around you.
you're the tally-men, i'm the score;
watch me tally marks across your walls.

i swore i'd find a brighter side of life
and you'd find a colder side of strife.
you be the canvas that i rip apart with my teeth
in bare angry tendencies, but i'm sorry,
i'm not red paint.

watch this black paint stain your pale skin.
i smell the gin on your breath, the skin on your bones.
i smell the stench on your dress, the angst in your shoes.
i smell the love on your breath, the strength on your bones;
the pain inside your heart that has encased in mine.
it's so hard, i swore an empty promise.
