The Killing Tree (TKT) - Pillow Talk lyrics
Your rating:
Dead, alive Sleep walking through these last few weeks And still you persist to Suffocate every last breath of life from my lungs [Spoken:] As I sit now outside my laboratory door, writing, Under the heading of Experiment 87, this final entry in my casebook. I know that these are the last words That I shall ever write upon this earth. I neither ask nor expect forgiveness, now or hereafter, But for those who seek some explanation I refer them simply to this casebook. Let them read it carefully, From its first entry on that ill-starred day of July the 13th. Today I bought a small capuchin monkey from an organ grinder. The animal trembled with fear. When I took it to the laboratory and tried to pet it, it bit me. It must be completely fear-conscious, and a secretion of adrenaline, upon formal conditioning, confirmed my observation. So I fed it carefully and finally the creature voluntarily hooked onto my arm, where it hung contentedly From there it headed onto my shoulder, when I tried to give a surgical lesson. And I am weak Now, my last thought was of you screaming my name The anger in your voice as I collapse in pain Don't hold your breath for me, because I will let you down Now as I'm losing my voice, never found And if you get there don't even bother calling Cuz by the time you read this... Instill in my your dignity with pride You waste another life of possibility Run the clock down now because I live in the corner you've backed me into And if you get there don't even bother calling Cuz by the time you read this I'll be gone And when I said I loved you I swear to god I lied Die motherf**ker, you and your reasons why Forget the rotten anger And all the words, you lie! Am I tearing apart your life, cuz you're tearing apart mine! So you've walked me through these last few weeks I've gone so far Now, as if you suffocate the last breath of life from my lungs Dead, alive I never bought your lie Giving all your anger Now you won't see what I have made for you Inside I gave you everything Rely on my until I shatter Instill in me the peace you found And so I'm never coming back until you're gone I can't save you, I can't save you But I want to be hopeful I don't know you, I don't know you But I can never find the words to give it all Never promise you nothing Never come and dance to the beat again Never, this is all I had to say And this is all that changes how I know and say
