This will end in blood

Only these bones can stem this flood

These quiet walls descend into a restless Earth

And build for me this shallow tomb

An empty bed I toss and turn in tangled sheets

Keep me locked inside my head

I awoke

With nothing more than blood and bones

I've been dying to take this

And cut it to pieces

I can't fight this feeling any longer

It constantly haunts me

And I can't sleep at night

I don't ever want to close my eyes

Who knows what hides within the corners of this space

All the hurt I can't erase

And in my dreams

My teeth fall out

The silence of this room is deafening

I long to scream out loud but always forget to breathe

My pulse it pushes and pulls

While my heart is skipping beats again

My bones a prison and a home

And I've never owned the key

The night gets cold

My eyes grow tired and old

And I fall

Like my empty glass of Aperol

And I'll never sleep at night

I'll never want to close my eyes

I'll dig another hole

Bury these bones
