Melanie Martinez - Leeches lyrics
[Melanie Martinez - Leeches lyrics]
They can't sleep at night
Hold their pillows tight
Caught in the river of tears that I cried
Bountiful harvest, they flock to my garden
Push their way inside, I go run and hide
They lift all the covers
Pull me into their sight
Slimy and superficial
Straining their artificial
Yapping to seem official
Making it beneficial to their cause
How much blood can you draw with your claws
From a flesh that's not yours?
My hands aren't yours and
Gnaw on my bones, no marrow
Left to keep you enthralled
I guess that is the luck of the draw
Ah ah ah ah ah
Let all their friends in, the enemy's present
They don't think too hard
'bout your fragile heart
They eat off the table that you set
So you starve stop all your breathing (Huh)
No, don't let them see you
They find any way just to make you stay
Right where they want you
In their piss-covered games
Slimy and superficial
Straining their artificial
Yapping to seem official
Making it beneficial to their cause
How much blood can you draw with your claws
From a flesh that's not yours?
My hands aren't yours and
Gnaw on my bones, no marrow
Left to keep you enthralled
I guess that is the luck of the draw
Ah ah ah ah ah
