You never got to bloom, they cut you from the stem

You′re innocent at birth until you understand

Repeat every word that you say to me

They put you to use or put you to sleep

I can't tell you the difference between

An embryo or a planted seed

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

Consistency of dirt, insects that spun your silk

They wait for gratitude, they wait for mother′s milk

Repeat every word that you say to me

They put you to use or put you to sleep

I can't tell you the difference between

An embryo or a planted seed

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

So many shades of white, so many-

I know what you hate, so-

So many shades of white, so many-

I know how to cut a-

I know how to cut a wound that will not heal

I know how to cut a wound that will not heal
