lyrics

Pale face
Holes for eyes
Black teeth
Grin at the sky

The trees grow long
Time stills
Recognition hits

I wash ashore
A corpse dressed for
A prolonged funeral
The rest of my life

The shadows with teeth
Close in behind
I’m both alive and dead

The wound never healed
I was murdered over time
Drained

Trauma is a knife
It cuts to the other side
More than flesh
It takes more than life

I live in limbo
The shadows are my home
Even as they chase me
And nibble on my bones

I live in flames
They eat my skin
Expose my insides
As I burn away

I walk among the living
A specter in the night
Monochrome ghost
Haunting the light

It’s quiet
among the trees
The forest
settles around me

I’m not alone
Something’s out there
It hears me breath

Holes for eyes
Rotting teeth
It’s face emerges
Identical to mine

I flee from the nightmare
The corpse at my heels
I’m not ready to face it
I’m not ready to heal

Its hands close around me
Around my throat
I’m driven to the ground
By the weight on my back

I close my eyes
Against the terror I feel
It’s fingers pierce me
Dissecting my flesh

But I feel no pain
Only relief
The pressure subsides
And I begin to weep

I hold the corpse tight
To my chest
Tears blind me
But I know what I’ll see

The harm that’s done
Will never leave
But it’s not a corpse
It’s a thing of beauty

How long will I go
Lost in these woods
Divided in two
Half a human

I push through
Until I’m whole
I get to my feet
And start for home

The pain in my chest
Will never fade
But I’ll carry it with me
Until my dying day
