You never got to bloom
~#**************#~
They cut you from the stem
~#**************#~
Youre innocent at birth
~#**************#~
Until you understand
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
Repeat every word that you say to me
~#**************#~
They put you to use or put you to sleep
~#**************#~
I cant tell you the difference between
~#**************#~
Oh, an embryo or a planted seed
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so many shades of pale
~#**************#~
I know what you hate, so I do it constantly
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so many shades of pale
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a wound that will not heal
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Break]
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
Consistency of dirt
~#**************#~
Insects that spun your silk
~#**************#~
They wait for gratitude
~#**************#~
They wail for mothers milk
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
Repeat every word that you say to me
~#**************#~
They put you to use or put you to sleep
~#**************#~
I cant tell you the difference between
~#**************#~
Oh, an embryo or a planted seed
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so many shades of pale
~#**************#~
I know what you hate, so I do it constantly
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so many shades of pale
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a wound that will not heal
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Break]
~#**************#~
[Outro: Alice Glass]
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so— bloom
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a— stem
~#**************#~
So many shades of white, so— bloom
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a— stem
~#**************#~
Bloom
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a wound that will not heal
~#**************#~
Bloom
~#**************#~
I know how to cut a wound that will not heal
