Lyrics of Vessel

I melt at the sink
Like a priest or a prince.
Maybe i'm to be a king
And they're awaiting in westminster.
And the walls are paper thin,
Hear the neighbours arguing.
Could you lower you voice?
I would sell my unborn daughter,
Maybe.

We didn't stage a passion play,
Didn't change our given names
Or what's to our bed,
Or me to make a scene.
But i see your skin paling out,
Then the host in your mouth
Where the truth never seems to be.

Now the burning branch never speaks to me.
(it whispers like:)

I don't wanna be a vessel any more.
I don't wanna be a vessel any more.
These are my words,
This is my mouth.
I don't wanna be a vessel now.

And i may not see the future
But i see its lonely architect
At the door of my house.

I don't want to be a vessel any more.
I don't want to be a vessel every day.

Truly i never dreamt
Of all the damn accoutrement,
How it weren't for myself,
For the shadow.
I laid it all at your feet,
On your neck and your cheek
But the burning branch wouldn't speak to me

I don't wanna be a vessel any more.
I don't wanna be a vessel any more.
These are my walls,
This is my house.
I don't wanna be a vessel now.

And i may not see the future
But i see its lonely architect
At the foot of my hell.

I don't wanna be a vessel any more.
Didn't wanna be a vessel any way.
