C#m B9 A
Metaphor for a missing moment
pull me into your perfect circle
One womb, one shape, one resolve liberate this will and releaseus all
 
C#m B9 A
Gotta cut away, clear away, slip away
And sever this umbilical residue that's keeping me from killingyou
And from pulling you down with me, here I can almost hear youscream
 
C#m B9 A
Give me one more medicated peaceful moment
one more medicated peaceful moment
Because I don't want to feel this overwhelming hostility
because I don't want to feel this overwhelming hostility
 
C#m B9 A
Gotta cut away, clear away, slip away
And sever this umbilical residue
Gotta cut away, clear away, slip away
And sever this umbilical residue that's keeping me from killingyou
keeping me from killing you (2x)
