A night so dark the night cannot be found

The hunger eats the host and drinks the mouth

A diamond larger than the mine

A god the god of deicide

A sound so loud it shakes apart the sound

The cave is everything the cave is not

Its memory filled with all that it forgot

A dream so real it takes your place

Beauty so ripe it cracks the face

The tragedy knows nothing of the plot

A night so long it dies before it’s passed

A scar more massive than my body mass

A moon bigger than the sky

A tear that drowns away my eye

The way I and cry and cry until I laugh

I’m gonna break out of my skin

I am more than the world I’m in

I’m gonna break out of my skin

Gimme a rupture from above

Gimme the throes and spangles of

An apocalypse of love

I’m gonna break out of my skin

I am more than the pain I’m in

No more waiting—it begins

Call it exponential growth

Call it cancer

Call it ghosts

I am neither

I am both

And the mountain’s underneath my feet

And my feet give way to blistering

And the mountain’s rolling down itself

And I’m stepping into mystery

And the wave wipes out the ocean

And my heart beats through my chest

Till the law forbids the word of law

And silence does the rest

I’m gonna break out of my skin

I am more than the world
