"Centipede" lyrics

"Centipede"

Woke up in the backyard covered in fire ants
Said you hadn't touched a drink in years, and they're just vitamins
And I'm a liar like you, we're not that different
And the only difference is you think you're innocent

It's a life of self pity
It's remorse without mercy
It's a curse you don't break
It's a centipede

I was safer in a crackhouse than underneath your wing
And my hunger for a father colors everything
And you don't know how it feels to mourn the living
Well I do, oh god how I do

It's the truth under morphine
It got you like it got me
It's a curse that we share
It's a centipede

It's ours
It's ours
