Swallowtail

Your wings are torn
Faded color, fall from grace
Twelve days adorned
Twelve days to be a waste
Falling out of the cracks at last

Sweet nectar, drown
Stuck to your skin again
Wore myself down
And now it's sinking in
For my self defense

Can you feel it, oh
Can you feel it?
If I say I'm numb
Would you believe me?
Pin me on the wall
Am I pretty?
In my final hour
I'll know you'll need me

Kill the feelings, oh
You got me good again
It's a primitive loss
It's a primitive loss

Can you feel it, oh
Can you feel it?
If I say I'm numb
Would you believe me?
Pin me on the wall
Am I pretty?
In my final hour
I'll know you'll need me

You said you would
But you don't mean it
You locked the cage and
Swallowed the key, yeah
You set me free, oh
Set me on fire
I'm the truth and you are the liar

Pin me on the wall
Am I pretty?
In my final hour
I'll know you'll need me
