These memories are bitter in mood I'd cut them out myself if that were possible Kind you cry yourself blind about Kind that choke you out, choke you out Had an uncle who was not by blood Liked to scare all the little girls away And if you're tenderhearted you should stop the tape Snap the tape He pulled the heads off of garter snakes I cried so helpless for those dyin' creatures You know I cried so hard I pissed myself Twistin' away from the horror He was lost at sea Memories wear thick coats Kind that pull you down By refusin' to drown You're choked under the shape Of a sailor A sailor Deputized by the cruel God of children No running water in his soul, just a hole Echoed when he called your name from down the hall His name was a command that cuts the ears off fightin' dogs Then wipes the knife on his militia pants Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on And he's braggin' all the while If I say that black is blue it's blue, black is blue if I say it is Black is blue, black is blue if I say it is I never wondered what made him that way Bullies are not born, they're pressed into a form And I hated those who gave him access to our days, the ones who did nothin' I still can't love them Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on He was lost at sea Memories wear thick coats Kind that pull you down By refusin' to drown You're choked under the shape Of a sailor A sailor A sailor Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome When the silent stains on Curechrome Ooohhh
