She came to me with baby steps at first
I could not see this blessing, it was a curse
Her eyes were hollow like an open grave
I cannot help myself, I am to blame
I gave the baby too much milk to drink
Then it got greedy and learned how to sing
I see it crawling out an open grave
I cannot help myself, I am to blame
It’s more than I could ever ask of you
It’s more
It’s more than I could ever take from you
It’s too much
I’ll rock the cradle til the splinters come
I’ll tie you up until you come undone
We’ll think it over in your open grave
I cannot help myself, I am to blame
To blame
It’s getting easier to hide from you
I’ll set the trap and watch you run into
All my obsessions come down in spades
I cannot help myself
It’s more than I could ever ask of you
It’s more
It’s more than I could ever take from you
It’s too much more
(Your grave)
(Your grave)
You never punished me, it’s too late
Why don’t you keep away
I’ve been so tired but awake
While you keep counting down
‘Cause it’s more than I could ever ask of you
It’s more
It’s more than I could ever take from you
It’s too much more
