Jugular Hymn

Intro

Gnash

Gnaw

Sever

Verse

Steel kisses jugular

Warm rivers ribbon down my sternum

Fingers hooked in cartilage

I peel the collar wide

Tendons snap like wet rope

A grin splits ear to ear

Pre-Chorus

Gargle

Gurgle

Spill

Chorus

Slitting your throat

Watch the red river run

Slitting your throat

Till the gurgling's done

Slitting your throat

Every artery torn

Slitting your throat

I was born to be born

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cutting

Cut cut cutting

Verse

Blade drags a crooked trail

Cartilage pops like bubble wrap

My knuckles sink the hilt

Two inches deep and turning

The wound blooms like a mouth

Singing one wet note

Pre-Chorus

Choke

Churn

Chew

Chorus

Slitting your throat

Watch the red river run

Slitting your throat

Till the gurgling's done

Slitting your throat

Every artery torn

Slitting your throat

I was born to be born

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cutting

Cut cut cutting

Bridge

You begged

I listened

You screamed

I laughed

You bled

I bathed

Breakdown

Rend

Rend

Rend the skin

Saw

Saw

Saw it thin

Chorus

Slitting your throat

Watch the red river run

Slitting your throat

Till the gurgling's done

Slitting your throat

Every artery torn

Slitting your throat

I was born to be born

Post-Chorus

Cut cut cutting

Cut cut cutting
