Lyrics and translation
Original
That's a frosty way to speak.
To tell me how to live next to you properly.
All this talking pulls my tongue.
I believed in you, so you believe in me.
I cried, I called, you dared me in the dark.
I felt a hush fall quietly from my scars.
So now I hide a pulse of princely orange peels.
Here's the way you told me how it always feels. Once I had a name to claim.
Scraped at all the walls like an orthodox saint.
I wished for the same old things that turned me inside out.
Curing in such pain, it's a game.
Me, I cried, I called, you dared me in the dark.
I felt a hush fall quietly from my scars. So now I hide a pulse of princely orange peels.
Here's the way you told me how it always feels.
Never have I ever been clutching at your hand to cure you of some sin. But that's the kind of state
I'm in.
Swimming in a pool of godly medicine.
Come, come, hear it, calling me, yelling like if ever there was someone who could make things heavenly again.
Feel alive.
Me, I cried, I called, you dared me in the dark.
I felt a hush fall quietly from my scars.
So now I hide a pulse of princely orange peels.
Here's the way you told me how it always feels. Me, I cried, I called, you dared me in the dark.
I felt a hush fall quietly from my scars. So now I hide a pulse of princely orange peels.
Here's the way you told me how it always feels.
