You better look alive
Don't break in that cage, we have withered in like graves
And I hope you sound the same
And I hope you smile again
Don't harm a hair on her head
Feed me well and you can eat me instead
I grow accustomed to the piercing flesh
Reinact the only defence I have left
And I am not immune
To the weakness in my blood that would spoil me inside if it grew
Respond, resolve, reload
Dissolve, desperse and talk in codes
She keeps her voice smooth
I saw the wolves intrude
This is the backdrop
This is the backdrop
Blindfold, stage fright, nervous me
You have my pain and my dignity
You have my nightmares, you have my daydreams
This is the backdrop
This is the backdrop
Bedroom light on surgery
You have the map that could set me free
You are the locked door, you are the only key
Reinact the place, day exact time
Remember my failure to act
This is my wake up call
This is my wake up call
This is the backdrop
This is the backdrop
Leave a trail of bread for me
Invite me in with blood thirsty glee
You have my nightmares, you have my daydreams
This is the backdrop
This is the backdrop
Bedroom light on surgery
You have my will to withstand disease
You are my nightmares, you are my daydreams
And I'll treat you better if you hurt yourself
And I'll treat you better if you hurt yourself
And I'll treat you better if you hurt yourself
And I'll treat you better if you hurt yourself
Every time it leaves it makes me wonder
