Nerve Lyrics

A kiss does it, but my tongue can't taste your trauma

Skin to skin, but still can't choke the life from your father

The reflections in your eyes tell stories but I'll never be young again

A birth in reverse or close to it

From finger tips to my lips

Cut a line from my arm and down my spine

And strike a nerve with conviction this time

If I can't understand, who am I to you?

The boy from the table who died too soon?

The highest peak that never matured

The love you seek cannot be returned

A kiss does it, but I can't taste your trauma

Skin to skin, but I can't kill your father

Your mother don't trust what she don't know

So I'd die anyway before I reach your home

Before you reach my bone

And I bleed on out

Put your hand through my wrist

And make a fist

Do to me

What he's done to you

Cut the cord

And if I make a sound

Kiss my lips

To keep me from screaming out

A kiss will do it, but

If I still make a sound

Just kill me then

And ease your hands

Cause if I still make a sound

It means I don't understand

I just wanna

To understand
