Lyrics

I arrive splashed with blood And try to fix my hair My sword upon our path It's better off there My name is read aloud And I menace through the door A thunderstorm of eyes watch As I'm fierce across the floor Candles spit and ribbons red Strings, bows and tune Dancers glide and passions collide I'm scouring the room I know my enemies, everyone And white throats in pearls Carousel all about me The lace. Those ribbons in curls Cruelty is how they know me Kindness is not my gift A blade of glass my secrecy Is poised at my wrist They perish for my sadness I saw gold in your eyes Your gift here, tremendous Like the God between your thighs I leave splashed with blood Your ribbon locks my hair And all their joy was drowned Not, of course, that I care
