"We Own You" lyrics

"We Own You"

All rise for the man you're meeting
He is the hand you're needing
I am the snake from Eden
Don't you know my name?

I've got a three piece suit
And a shiny perfect smile
My dear, what's your pursuit?
I'll coach you several miles

Mama, I'm so sorry
I've grown into a man
And that man's killed you
He's killed you with his own bare hands

Daddy, don't you see me?
The boys all know my name
My nails are drenched with blood
From shaking hands to win the game

We own you
We own you

Sign in black sharpie
On a 7/11 mirror
Awkward! Awkward! Awkward!
And I just can't see me clearer

You ruined my tomorrow
And sweetened my today
And God made the decision
But the serpents always pay

We own you
We own you

I took a left on the street
Where somebody loved me
I slipped into a puddle
And woke up in your bathtub a couple years ago

And at the moment you love someone
Do you begin to destroy them?
Was it the time that was forgotten
That shattered eight ways?
And the loneliness?

So I carry it all
Oh, I carry it
Carry it
Carry it all
