lyrics

NANCY

Nancy paints me a painting its one that i look at alot, Nancy paints me a painting of a burial lot. but Nancy i wont be buried in a place I've already seen its bad look and its scary to us its way beyond mean. you never have your lights on the cottage never is warm and theres bedbugs on the bed where we perform. the chains that chain me are complex the abuse is close to destroying and Nancy sometimes i wonder if your mind is going.

(chorus) but Nancy since I've known you Nancy you must know by now. if you are the falls I'm the water and i must go down.

Nancy drew me a bath said i needed some heat and Nancy started to laugh when i was underneath. Nancy washing my skull Nancy shaving my beard and me as nervous as fuck cuz Nancy's so weird. Nancy whats in your pocket , Nancy careful that blade Nancy you got to stop it they'll take you away. no future i see that is mine no i just see her face in the beauty of er eyes the prison walls rise.
