lyrics

Watch me mythologize my demise
Into something more appetizing
Can't wait to eat it up

Watch me encode my erosion
Into something more slow motion
Can't wait to see it, ah,
Oh don't you speed it up

All eyes open
Curtain's closing

Watch me mythologize my demise
Into something more appetizing
Can't wait to eat it up

Watch me encode my erosion
Into something more slow motion
Can't wait to see it, ah,
Oh don't you speed it up

Watch me step offstage

All eyes open
Curtain's closing
All eyes open
Curtain's closing

Watch me mythologize my saddened eyes
Into the stars you see at night
Gives off the sweetest light

Watch me encode (What is my code?)
The body I keep my bones in (Tell me, are bones)
Into something worth devotion (worth your devotion?)
Gives in to fleeting life
Gives up without a fight

Watch me step offstage

All eyes open, curtain's closing
All eyes open, curtain's closing
All eyes open, curtain's closing
All eyes open, curtain's closing
All eyes open, curtain's closing
All eyes open, curtain's closing

When you look away, I feel the breath I take
Something nameless within me wakes
Can't wait to speak it out
And you won't hear it, ah
