Cannibal Days

Now I am told I can never come home
I'll carry my sticks & pick up my stones
And just go, to where?
I don't know
Ten thousand drops is the ocean ahead
Better keep on going when it reaches my neck
'Cause I know, I'm just a peg too low
Cannibal days
Won't repair
The bones they crushed and the scars we bare
Cannibal days
Won't confess
You never promised me a future with a fucked up past
Cannibal days, cannibal days
Seeing them lurk at the side of the road
Smacking their lips on a piece of our love
They know, I don't have much to give
Funeral flowers bend their heads to me
I swear, for a moment I could hear them breathe
They know, they don't have long to live
Cannibal days
Won't repair
The bones they crushed and the scars we bare
Cannibal days
Won't confess
You never promised me a future with a fucked up past
Cannibal days, cannibal days
Days
Like spatters on a silver plate
We ate all our flesh away
I can't wait to wash them all away
Now I've taken all that I can take
Cannibal days
Won't repair
The bones they crushed and the scars we bare
They won't ever see those lies again
Cannibal days
Won't confess
You never promised me a future with a fucked up past
Cannibal days
Cannibal days
