Otep Crooked Spoons Lyrics
Artist - Otep
Album - The Ascension
Take me down
Where the baptized drown
So they say....
(surface dweller)
(shallow swimmer)
Let's lick
My wounds...
V1.
So they say I killed a man
So they say I took his head
So they say he was a scourge
And all the world are his children
The best thing they ever did
In this life was let me live
Digging swiftly out of hell
Madness. helps me save myself
Crooked Spoons on every wall
Genocide lines the hall
10 gauge needles and prayer
Smearing sin everywhere
(chorus)
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
(surface dweller)
(shallow swimmer)
Let's lick
My wounds...
V2.
We feed until we're engourged
Let them sleep I need some more
Nooses made of human hair
Bodies falling from thin air
We speak and preach forbidden truth
This is it we're through with you
I'm choosing to lose my mind
Rape the blade and call it wine
Crooked spoons on every wall
Genocide lines the hall
10 gauge needles and a prayer
Smearing sin eveywhere
(chorus)
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
(surface dweller)
(shallow swimmer)
(bridge)
Take me
Where the baptized drown
I sleep to deep for you to wake me
I sleep to deep for you to wake me
I sleep to deep for you
You'll never wake me
(tunnel)
My lips are kissed
With tiny stitches
(chorus)
What else could you need?
You've taken everything
(exodus)
The venom that slips
From your lips
The tiny lies
Shining in your eyes
Pain in my veins
Shallow, hallow,
Incarccerated soul
I sleep to deep for you to wake me ....up.
