  D#She's made of hair and bone and Gmlittle teeth,
  A#Things I cannot sGmpeak
  D#She comes on like a Gmcrippled plaything,
  A#Spine is just a stGmring
  D#I wrapped our love in Gmall this foil,
  A#Silver-tight like spidGmer legs
  D#I never wanted it to Gmever spoil,

  D#You never ever belGmieved in me,
  A#I am your tourniqGmuet
  Prosthetic synthesis with butterfly,
  Sealed up with virgin stitch
  If it hurts baby please tell me,
  Preserve the innocence
  I never wanted it to end like this,
  But flies will lay their eggs

  What I got for me...x2
