Lyrics

I'm closing up, I'm shutting down, I took a vow of silence
You won't hear me from now on, you'll only see the violence

I put some water into a pot and brought it to a boil
I poured it on my arm without any reflex of recoil
I made sure it'd miss my hand
'Cause I need it to play in a band
I thought I would scream
But I didn't feel a thing

Then I took some ice and the sharpest knife, and brought 'em to my room
I sat there thinking of you and what I ought to do
Then I picked a spot and numbed it up, 'cause carving can take some time
Then I dug your name out of my skin, 'cause in my head, you're in my...mind
...Mind

Wo! I realized with some urgency, that all this is child's play
I need to learn to speak in a more effective way
But just what is the desired effect and why have I been stalling?
I want you to feel it, watch me now, I'm calling

Over at the hospital, they will dress my wounds
But they won't really heal, until they're touched by you

Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
