The Gentle Preservation of Children's Minds

The Gentle Preservation of Children's Minds 歌詞
Remember when they used to make us
Wake up and spray all the blood from the flowers?
It was so hot in the afternoon
They told us that we couldnt stop until the garden bloomed
When we were finished, we heard the sirens scream
I shook your back and woke you up from someone elses dream
You were so lost underneath the weight
You turned into the type of person that you used to hate
Are you still mine?
I hope you feel better this time
The gentle preservation of childrens minds
Remember when we danced with your mother?
She was so drunk in the living room
And then her profile, turned a certain way
Showed me how you would look thirty years from today
So come and talk to me in your language
With your glass eye and your wooden teeth
I think I know whats wrong, I think I know what youre on
I think I know what they meant when they said you were gone
Are you still mine?
I hope you feel better this time
