Susanne Sundfør - The Silicone Veil lyrics

rate me

<b>The Silicone Veil</b> by <i>Susanne Sundfør</i><br />

I’m a larva wrapped in silk

i am dying in burning flesh

let me out, let me ache

let me out, let me ache and itch

get me out of this suit

i go to a funeral every day

i follow these people around

i follow these people like a rat’s tail

i carry their caskets, i sing them good night

they’re better off without me

beauty is poisonous

disruptive

heaven must be an iron rose

oh, let me in, let me out,

let me in, let me out!

this is a retirement

from plumbing the veins of rats and kings

let the stars be my eyes then

unchain the knuckles and latches

unbutton my wrists

my skin so thin you can see black holes within

my eyes so clear they light up the sky

and sometimes i’ll bend into the silicone veil

and enter this world again as a ghost

beauty is poisonous

disruptive

heaven must be an iron rose

oh, let me in, let me out, let me in, let me out!
