What used to be
Oceans of skin
Have turned more violent
Than the sea
Even here
As I lay beside you
There's this feeling
That I can't shake
Staring constant
In a mirror of shame
I cannot peel
My eyes away
I am the compliment
To your cowardice
Could this be our withering
Crushed linen
Now covered in blood
Thought I woke up
In an abattoir
In the end
We're all buried in time
This is our withering
Was this God's behest
Impossible pursuit
I move through the room
As she says
The truth is
I am a burden
I held you there
Frozen in time
My mind went blank
With yours open wide
I held you there
Please don't leave me
But you'll never wake up
Please don't leave me
But you'll never wake up
