Lyrics

The apparitions tango to the sound of their heels tapping
A procession of prosthetics limbs and mannequins
They're all perfect models of imperfection
With a marrow made of cellophane
Strap on your ballroom best
Breath in and don't exhale
Oh, juliet! oh, juliet! deny your name your father
Rearrange the cells that form my skin
See them through kaleidoscope eyes
Because everybody feigns sometimes
Blur your eyes
Romeo
Bend the line
Romeo
Do you like what you see!
Oh romeo
Where art thou?
I've dressed up this canvas skin' painted something colorful just for you
Self-inflicted surgery is now routine
It erases all traces of faces we have all known; we have all owned
Stretch me over this
Two by four skeleton
