lyrics

Where you come from?
Where you going?
I notice
Where you come from?
Where you going?
I follow too close
What's it taste like?
My blood and my life?
Do you suffer?
'Cause I don't suffer anymore
Where you come from?
Where you going?
I follow too close

Like a deer caught
in the headlights
I will be dropped by what's approaching in her eyes
Like a deer caught
in the headlights
I will be the one that's abused

Her face is smothered
She faults the other
But she keeps the covers too close to breath
And sense desire
Quickly shoots the lights out on me
You're doing better
Yeah, do whatever gets me to you
Yeah, do whatever gets me

Feels like I finally found a friend
in the misery of self-defense
There will be no chance at blood again
I'll keep away from Magdalene

Awaking sober
she will know her
her ties to me have been rearranged
and taken forward
They promised there would be nothing stained

Feels like I finally found a friend
in the misery of self-defense
There will be no chance at blood again
I'll keep away from Magdalene

Like a deer caught
in the headlights
I will be dropped by what's approaching in her eyes
Like a deer caught
in the headlights
I will be the one that's abused

Feels like I finally found a friend
in the misery of self-defense
There will be no chance at blood again
I'll keep away from Magdalene

Your necklace cuts me like a sin
Tight 'round my neck
and stuck with pins
One fall and I will breathe again
I'll keep away from Magdalene
