Ethel Cain – Ptolemaea Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:2 Minute, 3 Second

I followed you in and I was with you there
I invited you in twice, I did
You love blood too much
But not like I do, not like I do

Heard you, saw you, felt you, gave you, need you
Love you, love you, love you
Heard you, saw you, felt you, gave you, need you
Love you, love you, love you

Heard you, saw you, felt you, gave you, need you
Love you, love you, love you
Love you, saw you, saw you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you

Suffer does the wolf, crawling to thee
Promising a big fire, any fire
Saying Im the one, hes gonna take me
Im on fire, Im on fire, Im on fire
Suffering is nigh, drawing to me
Calling me the one, Im the white light
Beautiful, finite

Even the iron still fears the rot
Hiding from something I cannot stop
Walking on shadows, I cant lead him back, uh
Buckled on the floor when night comes along
Daddys left and momma wont come home, oh, uh

You poor thing
Sweet, mourning lamb
Theres nothing you can do
Its already been done

What fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me show your face
Please, dont look at me
I can see it in your eyes, he keeps looking at me
Tell me, what have you done?

Stop, stop make it stop, stop, make it stop, stop
Make it stop, make it stop, Ive had enough
Stop, stop, stop, stop
Stop, stop, stop, stop

I am the face of loves rage
I am the face of loves rage

Blessed be the Daughters of Cain, bound to suffering eternal through the sins of their fathers committed long before their conception
Blessed be their whore mothers, tired and angry waiting with bated breath in a ferry that will never move again
Blessed be the children, each and every one come to know their god through some senseless act of violence
Blessed be you, girl, promised to me by a man who can only feel hatred and contempt towards you
I am no good nor evil, simply I am, and I have come to take what is mine
I was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood
I am here now, as you run from me still
Run then, child
You cant hide from me forever
