Shapeless like a monster in the sky Tilted like a glass eye Howling like a creature at the moon Reaching for my spoon All I ever wanted Was to be a silver bride And to hope he doesn't notice The dead girl at his side All I ever needed Was the will to be baptized So they could rinse me of my failures In the waves of a red tide Faceless like a stranger in the night Clutching my heart tight Hiding like a vampire from the sun Reaching for my gun All I ever wanted Was to be a purple bride And we could have the little funeral On a crumbling mountainside All I ever needed Was the will to be chastised Then I could wash away my suffering In the waves of a red tide

Red Tide
Shapeless like a monster in the sky Tilted like a glass eye Howling like a creature at the moon Reaching for my spoon All I ever wanted Was to be a silver bride And to hope he doesn't notice The dead girl at his side All I ever needed Was the will to be baptized So they could rinse me of my failures In the waves of a red tide Faceless like a stranger in the night Clutching my heart tight Hiding like a vampire from the sun Reaching for my gun All I ever wanted Was to be a purple bride And we could have the little funeral On a crumbling mountainside All I ever needed Was the will to be chastised Then I could wash away my suffering In the waves of a red tide
