Newborn Lyrics
I'll be the corpse in your bathtub
Useless
I'll be as deaf as a post
If you hold me like a newborn
Newborn
Whisper what you feelMy badly strung declaration
To you
You'll spend the end of your days
Gently smiling like a newborn
Newborn
Whisper what you feelMy badly strung declaration
To you
You'll spend the end of your days
Gently smiling like a newborn
Newborn
Loves not by degreesPress your lips
To my eyes
Taste my tears
On your tongue
Pull the blinds
Play our song
Nothings changed
Nothing could be wrongScream in the night
Kick and strike
Like a newborn
Holdin' me shakin'
Awake in the darkAll of these promises
Kept and unbroken
Tracin' the scars
Tracin' the scarsEven and cold
As we both become older
Your arms bound about me
The hush in your voice
The warmth of your fingers
Entwined around mine
In the eve of our lives
Never a choice
