Lyrics

Carrion child
Prey for me,play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Head, home to me, so much dreaming
Some say I'm growing cold and
Taking over
Nothing, cuts, two ways....
Possession: taking over
Stand these pictures on your shelf
And wear your heart upon my sleeve
Wear a dress that you can see through
See yourself inside;
I'll be your imagination
Tear apart what you believe
Make a mess of your conviction
Take away my pride and leave
Nothing, but the debris
Cuts, two ways
Carrion child
Prey for me, play your
Wild card, see the house come down around your
Possession: taking over....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake;
Possession: taking over....
Somehow the fact takes over, and the fiction coming through
Somehow I do my crying breaking down for you
This way doubt takes over, contradiction coming through
This way I do my lying, making up and making out for you....
Possession: taking over
Child (nothing)
Prey for me (but the debris)
Play your wild card (cuts two ways)
Some say I'm growing cold and
Taking over.....down around your
Head (nothing)
Home to me (but the debris)
So much dreaming, see the house come down around your
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
Possession: taking over....
Possession: shake shake shake shake shake shake shake
Possession: taking hold
