You were dead
By the time that I had found you
Your blood was spilled
On the couch where we had first kissed
So I carried you West
To the sea, so I could wash you

Your body felt just like a backpack

And I don’t know what they did to your face
But I don’t like it

You lived large
Till the day they finally caught you
And they cut out your tongue so you would not scream
When you came to
And you pissed blood
And then they chained you up and you turned blue

Your body felt just like a t-shirt

And I wanna build a tower
To all the nicer things you could have been
And I don’t like it

(chk-chk, boooom)
You were dead
By the time that I had found you
