"November" lyrics

"November"

One small sound
One small word
In tongues all over the world
I said it
I said it
One small word
I said it
I didn't
I said it
I didn't
Tongues all over

Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
I'll never hide my scars

One small sound
One small sight
One unsheathed knife must glint
In an alternate timeline's light
One rust-ridden blade juts out
Of a friendly moonstruck shape
To tear, tear terribly, terribly
Tear, tear terribly
The delicate crepe of night

Familiarity breeds
Indifference
Familiarity breeds discontent
Familiarity breeds
Indifference
Familiarity breeds discontent

My other time machine
A pungent, putrid brownish-green
November smile
Blandishing my two-timing door

One small sound
One small bite
One tomial tooth
One Loggerhead Shrike must skewer
My invertebrate doppelgänger
On barbed wire in a parallel universe

My tongue parallelly bleeds
One small drop
In a monthful of blood
In tongues all over the world
I said it, I didn't
It doesn't matter
What I said or didn't
Admit it
You were never going to get it
I was always gonna get it

Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my scars
Can't pick them out
Can't press them in
I'll never hide my
Familiarity breeds
Familiarity breeds

Not only is it thicker
Blood is stickier than water
Maybe that's relevant somehow
Can I explode now?
