vera norea - barbed wire halo lyrics

[verse 1]
creature of the dead and rotten you are
hanging at the merry+go+round bright as a star
you have claimed your territory here so take us down
but for some reason every day i just keep seeing you around
you keep telling me tales about revenge and about lies
and you tell them so well
have you seen them with your own eyes?
like a shadow in the back of my mind
you take hold and lead the way so good and so kind

[pre+chorus]
and i wanna be messiah
and i want it now

[chorus]
like a c+ckroach without its head you live on
even when your body’s gone
burned down and rotten away
(it doesn’t matter what i say)

like a magpie that’s fetching shiny things
and then spreading out its wings
but who cares, right?
cause everyone is having a good time
[verse 2]
i’m unbelievably inexperienced in being strong
i treat paper cuts like bullet wounds, then make it a song
i’m not that hard to read, i wear my secrets on my sleeve
but still trying to act tough, and i’ve done it for so long
i cry when you call me a hypocrite
so shut up and bless my mouth with your angel spit
i sleep in a he+rs+, it’s a gift not a curse
cuz i’m a weak+ass motherf+cker and i’m ready to admit it

[pre+chorus]
and i wanna be messiah
and i want it now

[chorus]
like a c+ckroach without its head you live on
even when your body’s gone
burned down and rotten away
(it doesn’t matter what i say)

like a magpie that’s fetching shiny things
and then spreading out its wings
but who cares, right?
cause everyone is having a good time

[bridge]
and right before me, is it you i’m looking for?
you said i’ve never said a prayer
i didn’t fight you when you set the barbed wire halo on me head
cuz i have never had no savior
meet me at the wake and tell me why it always ends like this
six feet under the ground and still i feel like i’m the traitor
and you take the kids when they are young
and then you teach them that that’s where they belong
get on the ferris wheel and sing a pretty song
cause they belong to you now
[chorus]
like a c+ckroach without its head you live on
even when your body’s gone
burned down and rotten away
(it doesn’t matter what i say)

like a magpie that’s fetching shiny things
and then spreading out its wings
but who cares, right?
cause everyone is having a good time

[outro]
and right before me, is it you i’m looking for?
you said i’ve never said a prayer
i didn’t fight you when you set the barbed wire halo on me head
cuz i have never had no savior

h+a+l+o
h+a+l+o
h+a+l+o
barbed wire halo!
