Murder to the Mattress

Swirl in her stomach, it's 10:39
Mind all grafittied, she knows it this time
Not like the other times, he drops the phone
Locked in her petrified, womb all alone

Take back, everything that we did
Save this, child from the life I lead
Now she feels it inside, dreams and nightmares collide

She feels alive now, warm inside now, with a life in her hands
Pray for the starlight, lost to heaven, and is god so blind, he can't see all the madness?
Scream, murder to the mattress

Why she cried, did he decide, to stay and not leave?
A sucking sickness, a child on TV
Would he be here when she's ghostly and fey?
Shame beats her breast, to the bathroom tile a mile away

Take back, sentence all dreams to die
Her plans, ducks in a sniper's fire
Boiling blood cells collide
She cries infanticide

She feels alive now, warm inside now, with a life in her hands
Pray for the starlight, lost to heaven, and is god so blind, he can't see all the madness?
Scream, murder to the mattress

This fate that a mother decides, this violent mercy
Forgive me my delicate child
May god speed you to grace, you'll never see my face
God's will is good, what could you know, your still born dreams, dissolve as you go
Take this soul of the ancients, your life's work is done here
Speed of light, leave me here
She drops, suddenly to the floor, just before god reconsiders and strikes

Now she feels it inside
She cries infanticide

She feels alive now, warm inside now, with a life in her hands
Pray for the starlight, lost to heaven, and if god's so blind, he can't see all the madness?
Scream, murder to the mattress
