lyrics

So What, Caravaggio

The sort of boy that never learns.
A bag of rage and carpet burns;
Leans in to do another line.
Kills himself to prove he's fine.

So what? Caravaggio was a murderer.

Wrings the toxins from his hair;
Bottles them to sell at the fair.
Nose is cakes with snot and blood.
Fights until he's understood.

So what? Caravaggio was a murderer.

Angels with dirty faces and dirty hands
From dirty places with dirty plans
Formed of dirty sneers and dirty answers
Pumping out dirty tears from dirty glands.

I can feel my skeleton protesting its cargo.

So what? Caravaggio was a murderer.
