Shutdown your body
shutdown your skin.
Shutdown your kisses
shutdown within.
Shutdown your feelings
shutdown your tongue.
Shutdown your dreaming mind
shutdown your love.
Shutdown your anger
shutdown your precious time.
Shutdown you loser
shutdown your little mind.
Shutdown your letters
shutdown your voice.
Shutdown your phone calls
shutout the noise.
Shutdown the freezone
shutdown your breath.
Shutdown your hormones wild
shutdown your sex.
Shutdown your anger
shutdown your precious time.
Shutdown you loser
shutdown your little mind.
I gave a promise but it's just not enough for you.
I lied and cheated and betrayed all my trust for you.
I ripped my heart out threw it down on the bed for you.
I crawled away and hid in shadows and dust for your love. Woke up and I wanted to make you my harbour
(cold light bleeding through the closed blinds deep the quicksand cage the soft hands).
Made up but the moment dies
(her breath threading the still night kiss the cold lips make the time slip).
Cut me down and throw me out.
Shut me down and fade me out.
Spaced out and I touch you to make myself calmer
(cold light bleeding through the closed blinds deep the quicksand cage the soft hands).
You smile but the moment dies
(her breath threading the still night kiss the cold lips make the time slip).
Cut me down and throw me out.
Shut me down and fade me out.
