[Verse 1]
Cold skin, stiff pose
Dead eyes pressed closed
Slowly erode
Food for the black mould
So close to forgiven
Pumped full of formalin

[Pre-Chorus]
Wrap me in satin and beg me to stay
Wash off the anger, delay the decay

[Chorus]
Hard hands treat me tender
A moment I won't remember
Rinse the old blood down the drain
Keep me clean and keep me safe
Hard hands treat me tender

[Post-Chorus]
Treat me tender
Delay the decay
Treat me tender
Delay the decay

[Verse 2]
Stare at the ceiling as l decompose
Hold me close
Now that I'm dead
Can we finally connect?
Brush my hair like I'm young again

[Pre-Chorus]
Wrap me in satin and beg me to stay
Wash off the anger, delay the decay

[Chorus]
Hard hands treat me tender
A moment I won't remember
Rinse the old blood down the drain
Keep me clean and keep me safe
Hard hands treat me tender
