Alarming to the senses As the scent of latex And blinding white lights greet me Withered, weak, and weary His bones are bare and brittle Can't rid this taste of surgery Of surgery, accusing me Of perjury, like surgery correcting me
I'm bouncing in and out of my body As my eyes roll in rhythm And they wish to focus But they can't bear to see
Our eyes are paralyzed As your legs are canonized With the water from these seas To own a heart that's half of yours These bones are mere accessories Well these bones are mere accessories
The doctor swears he heard me Stutter as muttered A startling repetitious phrase And under anesthesia I told him over and over again This body's yours to keep And though he swore to me He said he'd do as I please But I stand before you Upon these same selfish feet
I'm bouncing in and out of my body As my eyes roll in rhythm And they wish to focus But they can't bear to see
Our eyes are paralyzed As your legs are canonized With the water from these seas To own a heart that's half of yours These bones are mere accessories
His neck, is shattered by the tides The ocean prays for his demise But I swear to you I watched his heart pump blood into those veins Throwing punches at ocean waves
And as the tides retreat I see the smile you see today To own a heart that's half of yours These bones are mere accessories
Our eyes are paralyzed As your legs are canonized With the water from these seas To own a heart that's half of yours, yours These bones are mere accessories
