Black Thumb Lyrics

You say the enemy works it's way in
But I think that nature finds it's place
Avert your eyes from the being
We've skewed the framing
With purity on a pedestal

I can't recall when their love was eclipsed by their touch
A black thumb to our good nature
Shame passed down from our forefather's mouths
If this body's a temple then I've burnt it to the ground

Raised ashamed of our flesh
With blood dripping down our chins
We are cannibals, we are rabid dogs
We are searching for an answer

I can't shake this feeling that restraint has led me astray
With blood on my lips and a stake in my heart
I watch them stumble and fall
Bleeding out on the floor
Again and again

Weighed down by a bouquet of wilted flowers
Will they judge me by the bodies that I've accrued?

We've skewed the framing
With blood on my lips and a stake in my heart
We've skewed the framing
I've killed your concept with my black thumb

Raised ashamed of our flesh
With blood dripping down our chins
We are cannibals, we are rabid dogs
We are searching for an answer

Black thumb
