lyrics

My body, with its smooth escape,
leapt from that house, of rattling din
for I can’t shake your phantom taste.

I swore I moved with guilty haste,
but guilt won’t chase: it moves within
my body, with its smooth escape.

Now in the mirror, my pale face,
seems only teeth, draped with my skin,
for I can’t shake your phantom taste.

At first I prayed for sweet erase,
reached for desires deep within
my body, with its smooth escape.

Escape is not the safest place,
I’d rather hold your memories in
for I can’t shake your phantom taste.

So haunt me, round my bedroom case,
and let me feast on what has been,
my body with its smooth escape,
for I can’t shake your phantom taste.
