Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss of vanity
The soft and the black and the velvety
Up tight against the side of me
Of mouth and eyes and heart all bleed
And run in thickening screams of greed
As bit by bit it starts the need
To just let go my party piece
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss before I feed
The stench of love for younger meat
And the sound that it makes
When it cuts in deep
They're holding up on bended knees
The addiction of duplicities
[Verse 3]
As bit by bit it starts the need
To just let go my party piece
For I never said I would stay to the end
I leave you with babies
And hope and beseech you
[Verse 4]
See me like this in the whole of sincerity
See me over and over and over
I leave you photographs
Pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and stains on the ceiling
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
When we both will see how the ending would be
[Verse 5]
So it's all come back 'round to breaking apart again
Breaking apart like I'm made up of glass again
Making it all behind my back again
Taking a breath for the fear I'm sleeping
It's still deep, to the heart of bone again
Taken outside like he's out on his own again
Around, around and around
He's coming apart again
Over and over and over
[Verse 6]
Now that I know I'm breaking to pieces
Pull out my heart and feed it to anyone
Crying for the crowd
And let's try for love of the crowd
The three cheers for everyone
[Verse 7]
Dropping through sky
Through the glass of the roof
Through the roof of your mouth
Through the mouth of your eye
The eye of the needle
It's easy for me
To get closer to heaven
Than ever feel whole again
[Verse 8]
I never said I would stay to the end
And leave you with babies
And hope and beseech you
See me like this in the whole of sincerity
Soon will be over and over and over
I leave you with photographs
And pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and stains on the memory
Songs about happiness
Murmured in dreams
And both of us knew
How the end always is
How the end always is
[Verse 9]
How the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
Always is
Always is
Always is
Always is
Always, always, always, always, always, always is
