i can’t believe
that i’m still alive
i can’t believe my ears
i can’t convince my eyes
that red carnations on
my bare unemptied chest
are not some kind of sign
that you just want me dead
your canvas is my face
my neck is your cold clay
through which you express
how i’m worth what i get paid in
bruises on my heart
and scratches on my brain
to remind me that i’m yours
and keep me in my place
i still don’t mind doing your dirty work
i still don’t mind, i still don’t mind
there’s a great, there’s a great
there’s a great, great void
sucking us in, sucking us in
sucking us in, don’t go alone
i still don’t mind doing your dirty work
i still don’t mind, i still don’t mind.
