Lyrics
I think you tryin to tear
But I stick with her spit
Keep thinking comic lines
Of those less fortunate
I must exterminate
The lucky haunted few
With my lottery.
My fingers need it back
It curles around her neck
She chokes her dying breath
And blows it in my face
Her sticky ploppy sticks
To my more waiting flesh
And blood runs from her mouth
For my last kiss to taste
For my last kiss to taste
I know that it's wrong
But I'm waiting to see
How very long I can keep up the pace.
Grinding Process
Prevent you stratus, yeah
I snick it husband
Make me tall with lies
Loose lips torture me
Mus ditch romalaid
Lick me, continue
With my ladder ray
Finger painted black
Goes around her neck
Chokes with giant blood
Losing my face
Stick it lonely streatch
Strive one, wasted wretch
No runs rumor now
Who's my last gift to taste?
For my last kiss to taste
Now I know that it's mound, but
The way it will be
How very long
If I could trick it to be.

Grinding Process
sitting in your smile chair
I sniff here lips and spit
he keeps on calling lies
of those less fortunate
I must exterminate
the lucky hunch and guilt
I win my lottery
My fingers need a bath
he moves around and licks
she chokes her dying breath
and does it in my face
her sticky druggy sticks
to my more waiting flesh
it doesn't number mine
for my last kiss to taste
for my last kiss to taste
that I know it is wrong
but I'm waiting to see
how very long I can keep up the pace

Grinding Process
One thing to shred and tear
Glass meat never stares
Feed me karmic lies
Of those less fortunate
Must exterminate
Left me haunting you
Win my lottery
Fingers needled black
A cross around her neck
She chokes her dying brain
And blows it in my face
Stick your lucky sticks
To my more waiting flesh
No one's rumors now
For my last kiss to taste
For my last kiss to taste
My cry is lonely and numb
But I'm waiting to see
How very long I can keep up the pace.
