Does it have to burn? Emotions root and intertwine In a garden of cannibal smoke ♪ Mushroom eyes Areola of an aerial life The breast of mind Bring it back to me Acid spine Tongue caged in rose gold lines A vessel of what could be (Take it away from me, I was gold before I knew you) Ate away at me A parting gift of infestation ready to fill you in Shared your fruit with me So why does it have to burn if mother stays? ♪ Does it have to burn? Does it have to? Does it have to burn? Does it have to? Does it have to burn? Does it have to? Does it have to burn? Burn ♪ I was gold before I knew you I was gold before I knew you, knew you, knew you I was gold before I knew you I was gold before I knew you Ate away at me A parting gift of infestation ready to fill you in Shared your fruit with me So why does it have to burn if mother stays? Ate away at me A parting gift of infestation ready to fill you in Shared your fruit with me So why does it have to burn if mother stays?
