Lyrics
Ears that can
Ears that can’t
My ears are listening to your
Desperate chant
And it says
Hear me, won’t you hear me, won’t you hear
me, won’t you hear me now
Eyes that can
Eyes that can’t
These eyes are open to your
Deviant
Ways
Hear me, won’t you hear me, won’t you see me,
won’t you see me now
You can’t resist
You feel the urge
To seek an audience
to preen and purge
Ties that bind
Ties that cut
Your opened skin will be your
Opiate
Haze
Hear me, won’t hear me, won’t you feel me,
won’t you feel me now
