Lyrics for Ready to Lose

Thinking about the mouth that waters, Thinking about losing. Sucking the marrow, feeding the pain. Facing a consequence The blood The mine The yours Combined Blood control A hazy line Rearranging Of desires Ready, ready to lose a privilege Ready, ready to lose a privilege Dysfunctional culture Spin me away Preserving the bloodline Fear of suffering, fear of loss Sucked in your birth rights The blood The mine The yours Combined Blood control A hazy line Rearranging Of desires Ready, ready to lose a privilege An ongoing habit A transfer of possessions Ready, ready to lose a privilege A final sequence An end to succession
