Wrapped In Piano Strings
Radical Face Lyrics

I saw your father in the hall
I caught a glimpse of your deceased father walking down the hall

His ghost is living in the walls
His spirit still remains within the four walls of this house

I heard him crying while you slept
While you were asleep, I heard him weeping

I heard him breaking things after you left
After you left, I could hear him throwing things around in a fit of anger

I watched you crawl into my bed
I observed you getting into bed with me

With curses spilling from your head
Swearing and foul language was coming out of your mouth

You said "We're just the walking dead"
You expressed the feeling that we are like zombies, alive but without any real purpose

So I pulled the trigger and we floated off
As a result, I decided to let go and shot us both, and we rose off the ground

Into the air
We went high up into the sky

Up in the air
We went higher and higher

We're in the air
We are still in mid-air

I used to worry about the time
I used to stress out about time slipping away

But I lost my teeth along the line
But as time wore on, I lost the ability to grind my teeth together

So I carved the apple from my eye
So I plucked out one of my eyes and gave it to you

And gave it to you before I went away
I gave it to you as a parting gift before I left

Blood ran into the kitchen sink
Blood dripped off your hand and fell into the sink

Your hand and lives are running pink
Your life is beginning to fade away, represented by the color pink

I sat and watched you as your ring
I remained seated and watched as your wedding ring

Slipped off and rolled across the kitchen floor
Slipped off your finger and kept rolling across the dirty kitchen floor

They cut your eyes wide open
They sliced open your eyeballs

And pour into your precious head
They then inject substances into your brain

My reach don't go that far dear
Unfortunately, I don't have the power to reach you and help you

But please oh please don't let them in
But please, I'm begging you, don't let them harm you

I sank into the sea
I immediately sunk into the ocean

Wrapped in piano strings
My body was tied up with the strings of a piano

Few words could open me
Few words had the ability to bring me out of my depression and emotional pain

But you knew them all
You, however, were one of the few people who knew exactly what to say to me

Now I just sleep beneath your floor
Right now, I am buried under the ground beneath your house, lying dead and forgotten

My ghost just tries to keep you warm
However, even in death, I am trying to protect and comfort you

I've seen the end, I've lost the war
I already know the outcome, and I have lost the battle

One day you'll join me here just like the rest
Soon enough, you'll come to join me in the afterlife, just like everybody else

I hear the engines
I can hear the motors

They're roaring in our mouths
They sound like they are screaming and echoing in our mouths

The smell of creatures
The odor of living creatures

Are falling tooth and nail to get out
These creatures are fighting with all their might to break free and escape

I see the airplanes
I am looking at airplanes fly in the distance

They're pouring from the chest
They are appearing as if they are pouring out of a container

They fill the air
The skies are getting increasingly crowded with planes

And burn and bury just like the rest
Eventually, these airplanes will crash and burn, and their debris will be buried, just like all others before them
