lyrics

Get my guts all over your fingers
Tell me what you found inside
Was it the sting of my childhood that lingers
Or my often misplaced pride
Did you come to the edge to see I’d
Already taken my trip to the bottom
was it solace you found when it was
somebody else’s name I was calling

You weren’t my worst decision
not my deepest incision
take that however you want
you’re another dry patch in my throat
a hole in my already sinking boat
take that however you want

You could hear me calling miles away
come take these nails out of me
you could smell the blood draining out and staining the dirt underneath
did you come to the cross to see the
hanging body of a broken mother
did you kneel at my feet and carve your
name in the wood with all of the others

You weren’t my worst decision
not my deepest incision
take that however you want
you’re a cigarette pull in a smoking bar
a scratch in my already dented car
take that however you want

Did you come to the sea to seek some
salt for the wounds of your aching lover
did you finally rest when you found me
lying on the shore both lungs full of water

You weren’t my worst decision
not my deepest incision
take that however you want
you’re a fly in my mothers roach infested home
a bruise on my already broken bone
take that however you want
take that however you want
take that however you want

The band pulls inspiration from The Menzingers and Against Me! incorporating these inspirations while carefully crafting a sound of their own. ... more
