Xiu Xiu - Hi [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO] (by XiuXiuForLife)

if you are wasting your life, say hi
if you are alone tonight, say hi
if you wish he should die, say hi

if you have a hole in your head, say hi
if you have a stitch in your wrist, say hi
if, when you look at the sky, it is black and shredded

a sliver of bone could get caught in your throat
well, silence is golden
a shard of bone sticking out of your arm
well, blood is beautiful

if your curtain is closed and you are still standing behind it
if there is a rag in your mouth
broken glass will shine for with the moon 
if your body has quit and you forgo residing in it
rat feces lacing your tongue 
broken hearts will shine for with the moon

if you don’t know what to say, say hi
if your bra is on fire, say hi
if your bed is a living hell, say hi

if you have eaten it all, say hi
if you have poked out your eyes, say hi
if, when you open your arms, ferdinand gores you in the chest

have you seen your face as of late?
the hippopotamus is beloved
half a crocodile hanging out of its mouth
with the village rejoicing

if your curtain is closed, yet you are still standing behind it
if there is a bomb in your mouth
broken glass will shine for with the moon 
if your body is wrong and you regret residing in it
jack razor blade at your throat 
broken hearts will shine for with the moon
