lyrics

Believe do not believe
Do not believe
Your socalledself or anything you read
In the sheets the sex stained sheets the sleepless sheets
Of a love that only ohsofaintly breathes
But it breathes

If there’s ever a conflict
If there’s ever a reckoning
I hope you know what you’re doing
I hope you know what you’re doing

Believe do not believe
Do not believe
You’re socalledself or what you think you need
For the relief the all but too intense relief
Of your perfect little petty little griefs
You thief

And o how you like to ignore how your hunger starves her here
As you try to get your pleasures clear
A familiar little longing delays your total defeat
And oh it’s familiar you too it’s calm and pale retreat

I fell and heard my body sing that giving in’s the sweetest thing.
I fell and heard my body sing: do not believe.
