Fetid Air Lyrics

I was coming up for air
I was sick she was despair
My mind was thrilling
Her body was willing
How I weep to sleep
I count the cost
I can't believe all that I have lost

Do you hear me?
Or feel me?
Believe me?
When I tell you could I beed
Less than is needless
Could you be
Shamed damned and blamed
Like I shame you?

I was gonna get my share
I was drunk on the fetid air she was breathing
I was seething
She was blotched, beautiful, bloody, and bored
I was coming and coming and coming
It was running on her open sores

Do you hear me?
Or feel me?
Believe me?
When I tell you could I bleed
Less than needless
Could you be
Shamed damned and blamed
Like I shame you?

I've got a legacy of hot night and bloody height
I was brief baby
She was my relief
Now I hide in the light and in the love
And in this fear of a switchblade
