ONYX Lyrics

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Our beating hearts beat like the rest

The spirals in our ears digest

Sounds around are pleased to bless

Only to those

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Only to those

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Only to those

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Only to those

Onyx wrapped in flesh

A seat at a table and I'm waiting just for you

Coming home for dinner and the feeding time ensues

I'm squeezing out some opals and rubies from my veins

Open up your mouth boy and swallow down my pain

Generations of gravel, decades of coal and bones

Finally, finally, mama is home

Come in, so you're not alone

I'm the comfort that you seek

I'm the light in the bleak

I'm the secret you shall keep

I'm the secret you shall keep

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Our beating hearts beat like the rest

The spirals in our ears digest

Sounds around are pleased to bless

Only to those

Wrapped in flesh, wrapped in flesh, onyx

Only to those

Wrapped in flesh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Only to those, onyx

I'm not the bitch you think I am

I'm out in Japan

Finding rare gemstones I know others can't

I'm the gem that you

Wish you could dust off

Choose a spot for me to lose

All sense of personality

My only currency is charcoal

Paying you what I owe

Paying you what I owe

Paying you

My only currency is charcoal

Paying you what I owe

So I may stay blessed

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Our beating hearts beat like the rest

The spirals in our ears digest

(Paying you what I owe)

Sounds around are pleased to bless

Only to those

Wrapped in flesh,

(Paying you what I owe)

Wrapped in flesh, onyx

Only to those

Wrapped in flesh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Paying you what I owe

Paying you what I owe

Paying you what I owe

Paying you what I owe

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Our beating heart beats like the rest

The spirals in our ears digest

The sounds around are pleased to bless

Only to those, oh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Only to those, oh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Onyx wrapped in flesh

Alright Mr. Demille, I'm ready for my close-up
