LYRICS

In your memory not so gentle
Perversify slash sentimental
Caught between and caught without
I'm a failure not your failure now
In and out just like a knife would tax the flesh and leave a cheap wound
Fucked in fucking love and lay
Congenitally fractured anyway

CHORUS:
Unclipped unclean this forensic scene's all played out
The defense rests and sorry's just a no shit sherlock mouth talk con job

From your memory to this instant worked so hard for working distance
Like a mouth too late to shut
I'm a failure not your failure now

CHORUS
