Your fire spit seeps into my veins
Sets my soul ablaze
You poke and prod and suck me dry
Your tongue drips with lies
Cut me with the knife you used to carve me
Stab me with the rod you used to stoke me
Rip out my lungs and use them to breathe
Rip out my heart and use it to sleep
I dare you, triple dog
Tie me up like a dinner hog
Carve me up like a roast bird
Stuff an apple in my mouth, not a word
Light the oven ablaze
Set me free of your wicked ways
