Slow Birth
Marissa Paternoster, King Mike, Jarrett Dougherty
[Verse 1]
My red ribbon's soaked with success, my baby is born
Life won't wait at heaven's gate, it burns
I tear your sleep with long, white fingers, bless my stupid mouth
You're just another nail in my house
[Chorus]
It's been a slow birth
Red blood, slow birth
It's been a slow birth
Red blood, slow birth
[Verse 2]
I see her face in the garden, planting a white rose
It casts a seed, it turns the latch, it grows
[Verse 3]
I keep my wires under glass to blink my evil eye
I drown the cross and sand it down, bone dry
Who will rock the cradle when my hands are forced to lie?
My ego sinks, my gate is slight, I die
[Chorus]
It's been a slow birth
Red blood, slow birth
It's been a slow birth
Red blood, slow birth
