lyrics

my left foot showed up first
in a box on harper's doorstep
my right foot showed up last
in a box at lord selkirk

they found my chest in a suitcase
au coin de st. catherine et st. laurent
but they'll never find my heart
no they'll never find my heart

don't you know that you destroy me?
don't you know?

and yknow it's kind of a relief
cause i hate my fucking body
it's such an ugly goddamn prison
when it's not entwined with yours

i couldn't eat and i couldn't sleep
so what difference does it make?
every day a gauntlet of my thoughts
at least this way i can float and watch

as you fry it up with dill and mayo
struggle to keep it down
trying to eat my fucking heart
trying to eat my heart

don't you know that you destroy me?
don't you know?
i don't know why but you destroy me
i don't know why
