Heathens - Uncanny Valleygirl Lyrics

Snake oil can't fix a broken man
Drink from the well of poison waters
I have been buried alive
For all my crimes
This vicious cycle will carry on
Bad omens carved into flesh
I'll get my due, but I can't save myself
I can't fix this all
I've been carved from sorrow
So I need to know, are these knives or flowers
The sky has turned to black
And I have been returned to the gallows
All that I have touched will turn to dust
I have been buried alive
Sentenced to life for all of my crimes
Am I the only one that's left to survive
This torture makes me want to take my own life
But I'm in the business of making things better
And since I had to watch them die, I ripped my f*cking eyes out
Snake oil can't fix a broken man
All that we've lost is not enough
To stop the clock held captive by
What I despise, follow me into the night
It's such a shame
That all we have are memories
Tear my tongue out, silence this voice
Stare right into the precious void
I can't save myself
I've been carved from sorrow
So I need to know, are these knives or flowers
The sky has turned to black
And I have been returned, to the gallows
