You Come Down -Marika Hackman
Written by ：Marika Louise Hackman
You come down with your thorns in your crown
Tearing the flesh from your skull
And the...

I found a little plot of land
In the garden of Eden
It was dirt, and dirt is all the same
I tilled it with my two hands
And I called it my very own;
W...

Just because I love your skin
Doesn't mean I'll jump in
The water's clean and warm and green
I'm not allowed to swim
I'm scared of getting in
Batterie...

Oh，I beg you
Can I follow
Oh，I ask you
Why not always
Be the ocean
When I unravel
Be my only
Be the water where I'm wading
You're my river running hig...

He's on the wall
The god that you love
The curtains halfway drawn
Who's out there?
The lighter on the bed
The petrol in your head
The fire at your doo...

I'm jealous of your neck
That narrow porcelain plinth of flesh
It gets to hold your head
And I'd rather perform the task instead
I'll use my hands
You...

She who walks alone in life
She of sound mind
I am only as old as I've been told
Now I'm playing for time
Darling take me to the lakeside
Wash my body...

Burning, the roads through my mind are on fire
For the light you shed was blinding
A rabbit, caught in your glow, I am frozen
In the yielding tar, sti...

Oh, Father Time
Grow me, change me
Age and shed the infant skin that was mine
Did you hear the wind
Howling, growling? She knows something
She is olde...

If we were all born with a pylon between our eyes
Would we notice the grass
Through metal bars and siren cries?
I'm running on highways and dust
I've ...

I have no head
The forest floor is my bed
The leaves that fall I use as a blanket
For my bones are as cold as lead
The weight of all those hungry mout...

Here I hang from the apple tree
Oh, take a little bite, take a bite for me
The pain, it keeps me sane for I am more than a taste
The taste in the mout...

Greased sheets, leave my right hand free
It’s hard to be alone
Deep heat, turn the lights off in my home
I love this
My finger touch
I've been feeling...

When we were young, we used to get so close to it
And you were scared and you were beautiful
I wanna peer over the edge and see in death
If we are alw...

Foals in winter coats
 White girls of the north
 File past; one, five, and one
 They are the fabled lambs
 Of Sunday ham
 The EHS norm
 And they could...

Drink up, baby, stay up all night
 With the things you could do, you won't but you might
 The potential you'll be, that you'll never see
 The promises...

Come in juniours
England history makers
Record breakers
Game changers
Woke up in the night I was dreaming
Of the red and the white I could see it
Thou...

Wet legs and smoke in the heather
I've got fat red blood and flies sucking on my leather
I don't mind, I feel kind, be my pleasure
It would be my plea...

Mum says I'm a waste of skin
A sack of shit and oxygen
Empty seed in a can of earth
I'm a f***ed up cradle for the afterbirth

But Dad thinks I could ...

Would you cut me off so the lines are dead?
You know I'd want you then
And you know I'm right, 'cause you said I said
I didn't want you

But I'm not f...

Stranger, I wanna rearrange you
Slide back and feel your bones crack
So sublime, turn to slime

'Cause I see you
I see you
I see you
Crawl into my bed...

I'm jealous of your neck
That narrow porcelain plinth of flesh
It gets to hold your head
And I'd rather perform the task instead
I'll use my hands

Yo...
