Jawbreaker - Jet Black Lyrics
I'll be quiet to keep you quiet.Don't concern yourself with my slow dying.Through the vents I hear you sigh.I don't get too high these days.Your floor is my ceiling.Lights out, you can't come in.If you don't remind me, I won't forget you.If you don't ask, I won't upset you.I am jet black.I am stone cold.Jet black to the center.Funny like a funeral.I need you to bury me.White noise in black room dust.These hands long for one last touch.Hourglass all out of trust.I don't scratch so I won't itch.I don't reach so I won't miss.I taste our last kiss.This is the cure: the same as the symptom.Simple and pure: break to keep fixing.Patiently nurse, patient and nurse.This is the part I wouldn't show you.The part where you say, "I don't even know you."This is your cue.Be glad it's through.
