Lyrics to Carnivore
Carnivore Video:
So much space can fit in a sigh
More than words can say
I'm left here standing with my hands all awkward
Trying to mend space
I used to know you
But not anymore
Your substance has been subtracted
Word by word

Silence in my ears, where once you offered your conviction
Your promises are dry beads that crack with nostalgia

But that's all right, that's okay
Had no business giving myself to you anyway
I'll be careful next time for sure
And I'll, I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
To a carnivore
To a carnivore

Your soul is an ink stain
Your perfection is amend
You're as fragile as your thoughtlessness
Strong as you can bend
You could only believe in embryos
Held all your high-hopes through a telescope
Lavender haunted you so I could
Only laugh in yellow
And you have a genius for subtlety
and you'd slip through the fingers of ambiguity

But that's all right, that's okay
Had no business giving myself to you anyway
I'll be careful next time for sure
And I'll, I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
To a carnivore

You know I did it before but I won't
Do it again this time I'm being my own best friend
And I'm taking my songs and my poetry
This time I won't be so easy to read
And I'll, I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
I'll never trust my pink, fleshy heart
To a carnivore
Carnivore
To a carnivore
