Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Love spells evol backwards, people
Words back, words backwards, are lethal
Time spells emit, who can see it?
Feel says leef, tips eas is sea spit
[Chorus]
Teach, cheat
Part, trap
You have my heart, and I want it back
God, dog
Devil, lived
The giver takes, the taker gives
[Verse 2]
Dream is maerd, I'm marred in your mind
Four words, forwards
Can't we rewind?
Speech spells hceeps, you say for keeps
To keep me llehs, a shell to speak through
[Chorus]
Teach, cheat
Part, trap
You have my heart, I want it back
God, dog
Devil, lived
The giver takes, and the taker gives
[Verse 3]
Kiss spells ssik, the vacuum feeding
Words hold words, hold words from meaning
[Chorus]
Teach, cheat
Part, trap
You have my heart, and I want it back
God, dog
Devil, lived
The giver takes, the taker gives
