Lyrics
[Verse 1]

I see the slashes on your legs

And the smile on your face again

Blood is drying on your fingernails

Laughing at something that I said

Were you still sitting 'hind the stairs

With the new boy in your hair when I left?

You seem to recognize my face

But my hands feel like somebody else's

[Chorus]

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twice

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twice

[Verse 2]

You cut your hair off with a blade

Didn't want a single trace, that poor girl

The water couldn't get you clean

So you burned your skin instead with the curl (You live in your hell)

I watched an angel cut the sky

Feathers plucked from flight (Just to torture yourself)

And she sunk right through the ground

From colossal heights (Tell me, what could I do?)

When she cried out for my name

I didn't hesitate (The moment when the flies fell)

I screamed, "I cannot be your saint

I know you can't be saved"

[Chorus]

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twice

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twi—

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twice

I blanked last night when you told me

I blanked last night when you told me twice.
