Jeremie Lyrics

Staring out the window
Try to look beyond the barbed wire
No escaping these asylum walls

Lips are stained with charcoal
Bleeding organs still on fire
Wondering if I'm still alive at all

Wake up now
Oh wake up sweetest
Jeremie

I'll forget my skin
Had ever known the knife

Wake up, please
Oh wake up sweetest
Jeremie

And restore your smile
To this sedated life

Wrists are slowly healing
Wishing I had just gone deeper
Immortality, my punishment

Lifeless eyes are empty
Doctors say, "We'd better keep her.
Document the lunatic's descent."

Wake up now
Oh wake up sweetest
Jeremie

I'll forget my skin
Had ever known the knife
