Bare It - From Indian Lakes

I was on the table

Cut open for you all to see

In a deep sleep

I can’t feel a thing

Pay for more incisions

But you demanded it for free

It’s my soul you want and a cage for me

I was only wasting time

Just holding on to sanity

It’s a bitter taste, these melodies

You say you want to feel that love

I chased it down and boxed it up

They’re throwing flowers at me

They’re on the ground collecting dust

I was spinning fables

While you were picking at my seams

It’s a lonely stage, full of apathy

No one tells you where to hide

But everyone knows everything

It’s a pointless game

It’s all make-believe

You say you want to see my blood

You push me down, is that enough?

They’re throwing dollars at me

I’m on the ground, I can’t get up

Is that enough?
