Skull Beneath The Smile Lyrics by Kreeps

Moon Stand Still - Us Fools Prefer Darkness

2020

[Verse 1]
Well I cut the devils head off but you know it grew right back
My insides turned to jelly like a cave of nervous bats
I was levitating - hovering around just like the dead
And that skull beneath the smile was always living in my head
[Verse 2]
It’s all divining with my fingers and my broken x-ray eye
Remember me to them before I die inside your mind
There’s no money in the cure - no there’s no diamonds in the minе
Just a magnifying glass above the skull benеath the smile
[Verse 3]
Your crucifix is hanging upside down upon my wall
And those bible girls keep coming round and knocking on my door
I’ve been covered up in cobwebs - been exiled for the last time
And I tell you I can recognize that skull beneath the smile
[Bridge]
So what’s the use in drinking poison?
What’s the point in endless dreams?
Your sufferings just echoing a terrible reprise
You can try to fight against it - fill your belly full of bees
But you know that sticky blood was never truly worth the squeeze
And dreaded though she was she had to choose a sacrifice
I was drinking from a jar as I handed you the knife
Are you gonna leave me baby?
Are you gonna take your life?
Are you gonna cut a hole down to the skull beneath the smile?
[Verse 4]
Your crucifix is hanging upside down upon my wall
And those bible girls keep coming round to try and steal my soul
I’ve been tangled up in spiderwebs - cast out for the last time
And that skull beneath the smile was always living in my mind
