Kiss me with your bayonet. (Kiss me) Carve your name with blunt precision. (Kiss me) Greet me with this violence. (Kiss me) Taste my pores like an insect feeding. (Kiss me) Scream, scream cried the debutante. (Kiss me) Dance, dance, said the evil paraquat. Sing, sing you're telling me. Bleed, Bleed, said the paper to the pen. Understand there's no time. Understand I could not care less Reattach these severed limbs Fasten velcro to loose appendages Burn these lips with your fingertips Crush this heart with your megaton footsteps Die Young Leave a pretty corpse for me I wouldn't hold my breath If I were you Shrapnel swirls like butterflies And leaves your broken body in my arms Kiss me with brass-knuckled fists Hate me because I left you bleeding Love me with your violence Grab my throat like a mad man seething See you the opera house Wage this war with unparallelled carnage Meet me the parking lot Mangled parts can't be salvaged Save your breath Don't say your prayers Words won't help where you're going Save your breath, don't say your prayers this curse shall keep you wandering Burn these lips with your fingertips Crush this heart with your megaton footsteps Save your breath Don't say your prayers Words won't help where you're going Die Young Leave a pretty corpse for me I wouldn't hold my breath If I were you Shrapnel swirls like butterflies And leaves your broken body in my arms Save your breath Say your prayers Words won't help where you're going Die Young Leave a pretty corpse for me I wouldn't hold my breath If I were you Shrapnel swirls like butterflies And leaves your broken body in my arms
