Now I'm lost
Last night I heard lepers
Flinch like birth defects
It's musk was fecal in origin
As the words dribbled off of its chin
It said I'm lost
I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Dolls wreck the minced meat of pupils
Cast in oblong arms length
The hooks have been picking their scabs
Where wolves hide in the company of men
It said
I'm lost
I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Are you peaking in the red
Perforated at the neck
What of this mongrel architect
A broken arm of sewers set
Past present and future tense
Clipside of the pinkeye fountain
Now I'm lost
It's been said
Long time ago
You'll be the first and last to know
You'll never know
Last night I heard lepers
Flinch like birth defects
It's musk was fecal in origin
As the words dribbled off of its chin
It said I'm lost
I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Dolls wreck the minced meat of pupils
Cast in oblong arms length
The hooks have been picking their scabs
Where wolves hide in the company of men
It said
I'm lost
I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Are you peaking in the red
Perforated at the neck
What of this mongrel architect
A broken arm of sewers set
Past present and future tense
Clipside of the pinkeye fountain
Now I'm lost
It's been said
Long time ago
You'll be the first and last to know
You'll never know

than me. It comes across to me as though the lyricist isn't actually writing lyrics with certain
metaphors in it. He is trying to convey a dark emotion by using imagery and extremely disturbing word-choice. tis lovely... reminds me of ring around the rosey, pocket full of posey....

I think this could be a raw scene of "surgical" procedures which leaves even more scars on Cerpin's skin. Could be like destroying what is already in ruins since Cedric had already described Julio and pointed out that he had, among others, huge scars of cuts on his neck, I assume this could be because of a tracheostomy ("Perforated at the neck")...

you know it alls out there still dont think it could possibly be loused instead of lost? given TMV's nature to necessitate deeper understandings and further reading into the lyrics, and THE WORD IS IN THE TITLE OF THE EP, maybe this term for totally fucking up and being a mess could be more cohesive to the concept.
Just a thought.

They are a technically brilliant band although the singer isn't in Matthew Bellamy's league (Muse). They are probably better musicians though (Apart from Bellamy on piano/guitar).
