Lily by Burs

I am in your room and I can not sleep
There are voices in my head saying you don’t love me
I’m staring at the photographs of people on your wall
It hurts because I know I’ll never know them at all

Something in you doesn’t seem at painful as me
It is almost as though I've betrayed my body
I’d like to think she liked though I know she did not
Thinking ‘bout our body parts tied up in knots

Lilies in my right hand
I kill them with my left
I give you what I am
You leave me what’s left

Killer on the inside
I’ll be what you want
So call me as I am babe
Your vessel to get off

Had a dream last night I didn’t understand
I was hiding from the monsters and you were one of them
I am little, I’m a kid, things aren’t very hard
I’m hunting for the fairies in my backyard

Serpent my right hand
Tight around my neck
I give you what I am
You leave me what’s left

Killer on the inside
I’ll be what you want
So call me as I am babe
A vessel to get off
