I've fought it

Time and time again

Unending questions

No fucking answers

But if it's any consolation

I feel it as you do

I feel it as you do

Where are we now?

End of my patience

How can we pretend that we're strangers?

Why can't we have a common conversation?

Your voice carries pestilence

A death in me created

Battered and suffocated

We both can see it

Only one of us aches

And I can't conceive it

If you could feel the torment I do

Even for a second

Your brеath would fear your body

Now you bear witness

To thе massacre that you left behind

Beyond forgiveness

Akin to this body you left to die

A death in me created

Battered and suffocated

We both can see it

Only one of us aches

And I can't conceive it

If you could feel the torment I do

Even for a second

Your breath would fear your body

One day I hope you'll see like I do

Even for a second

Your eyes would melt away

Please make me whole again

All the tendons and viscera

Flayed out to operate

Just fucking look at me

Epidermis scored through as an animal's

Gurgling blood you vacuum up

I lie here miserable

Stitch by stitch

My body rejects

Stitch by stitch

My body rejects

If you could feel the torment I do

If you could feel the torment I do

Even for a second

Your breath would fear your body

One day I hope you'll see like I do

Even for a second

Your eyes would melt away

Now you bear witness

To the massacre that you left behind

Beyond forgiveness

Akin to this body you left to die

Now you bear witness

To the massacre that you left behind

Beyond forgiveness

Akin to this body you left to die

Bear witness

Bear witness
