Empty Head

by Screaming Females

on Rose Mountain (2015)

You went and put salt in my drink
Now I'm cross, you've got nothing to say
You give me the gun and I think
I'm a mess and I need you to stay.

Why must I be the angry one?
I won't cry, a fine line between our love
I can't speak but you ask, what have I done?

Set aside from this ring system
Cover me in dust.
Where magic lies with a fool's wisdom
Just below the crust.
I fashion you to lay your soul
A mystic death was said
To bring the songs of cherubim
Into your empty head.

And if our rapport is so sour
You're a big bank and IOU
I'll take your silence as a sign
You're a big shot, but who needs who?

Why must I be the angry one?
I won't cry, a fine line between our love
I can't speak but you ask, what have I done?

Set aside from this ring system
Cover me in dust.
Where magic lies with a fool's wisdom
Just below the crust.
I fashion you to lay your soul
A mystic death was said
To bring the songs of cherubim
Into your empty head.

Set aside from this ring system
Cover me in dust.
Where magic lies with a fool's wisdom
Just below the crust.
I fashion you to lay your soul
A mystic death was said
To bring the songs of cherubim
Into your empty head.
