After The Exorcism

I taped her to my heart

an embankment of spare parts

damn dam must burst

else we're dying of thirst

remove the needle from my back

c'mon, commemorative plague

hashtag, never forget, no regrets

I'm not holding on to innocence

I'm not holding on to violence

and I'll be letting go of you soon

uh, I'm not holding on to innocence

I'm not holding on to violence

so, I'll be letting go of you soon

I pulled apart your words

face value and face first

you spun so fast

said you were tied to the mast

but there was action in your pace

dissatisfaction in your eyes

once I evacuate, you delay

I'm not holding on to innocence

I'm not holding on to violence

so, I'll be letting go of you soon

after the exorcism, baby

foreign body

after the exorcism, baby

foreign body

can't have it both ways, baby

you can't have it both ways, baby
