This song is about a girl singer Jesse Hasek was dating who went behind his back and slept with his friend, hence the lines “sliding down my back a blade, spread her open to betray”.
Read the writing on the wall
Scar across the lips that talk
Boldly shrouding all I thought
Slowly building a flaw
Fair warning
Between the lines
Discover I
Thought you knew was their excuse
Technique swallowing puke
Rape(x4)
Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate
Skin the past what's done is done
Bloody taste I bite my tongue
Tears are old and grey at best
Long for rest
Attempt to refrain slow burn
Stitch shut minds eye
Wish to be oblivious
Time will gracefully numb
Rape(x4)
Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate
Rest from this might teach a lesson
Picking scabs can cause infection(x3)
Rest. From. This
Rape(x4)
Sliding down my back a blade
Spread her open to betray
Lying in the bed you've made
All is fair when love is hate
Rape
Sliding down my(Rape)
Sliding down my(Rape)
Sliding down my...
Rape!
