[ Featuring William Belote ]
Nine lives and none of them matter
Hated like the bat
See patterns of the splatter
You know what killed the cat
False pen of protection
Pacing like a rat
Mirrors turned, there's no reflection
You know what killed the cat
Perpetual pain to feel and see
Push and twist the knife
Drink the boredom of the bourgeoisie
I can smell your bruises and taste your life
Fear draws to the forbidden
Twice shy for I've been bitten
Sleep early, wait for my call
Drown, but that is that
Go on forever, I'll turn you on
You know what killed the cat
Portal to my mortal prayer
And that is where I'm at
Love slays but I don't care
You know what killed the cat
Perpetual pain to feel and see
Push and twist the knife
Drink the boredom of the bourgeoisie
I can smell your bruises and taste your life
Fear draws to the forbidden
Twice shy for I've been bitten
