Octopus Downstairs

Pass me the stethoscope, my ears are burning, I need to know
I can't hear your heart beating, is it dead? Where did it go?
I cut you open, your chest is empty, a cavity that your skin doesn't show
I'll put you back together, but it doesn't solve this nightmare

Take back what you said, but the ending's still the same
Your body heat against me, I still hate to hear your name
Make me the monster, you play the victim You use this deception, at your discretion

Pass me the stethoscope, my ears are burning, I need to know
I can't hear your heart beating, is it dead? Where did it go?
I cut you open, your chest is empty, a cavity that your skin doesn't show
I'll put you back together, but it doesn't solve this nightmare

Pass me the scalpel baby
I'll cut you down the middle
Is this worth it? Is this worth it?
Please tell me if it's working

I can't do this alone
(Please take my hand)
I'll destroy everything we had
And walk away from this

You cannot hold me back, you are the problem
you are not worthy of this love
I'd rather have blisters than walk a mile in your shoes
I'll wait a lifetime, I'll wait a lifetime

I can't do this alone [x2]
