Cut from marble
Smoother than a storm
And the scars
That mark my body
They're silver and gold
My bod is a flood
Of rubies, precious stone
It keeps my veins hot
The fire's found a home in me
I move through town
Quiet like a fire
And my necklace
Is of hope
I tie it and untie it
And the people talk to me
But nothing ever hits, so
People talk to me and all the voices just burn holes
I'm going in, who
This is the start
Of how it all ends
They used to shout my name
Now they whisper it
I'm speeding up
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
We're at the start
The colors disappear
And everyone's the stars
There's so much down here
So I just try
To keep up with the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
I dream of you
But they're not the sweet kinds
And the shivers move down my shoulder blades
In double time
Well now people talk to me
I'm slipping out of reach, now
People talk to me and all their faces blur
But I got my fingers laced together
And I made a little prison
And I'm locking up everyone who ever laid a finger on me
Mmmmm...
I'm going in, who
This is the start
Of how it all ends
They used to shout my name
Now they whisper it
I'm speeding up
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
We're at the start
The colors disappear
And everyone's the stars
There's so much down here
So I just try
To keep up with the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
Who, who, who
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat sparking up my heart
Who, who, who
And this is the red, orange, yellow flicker beat, beat, beat, beat
Mmmmm...
