๐ Lyrics
The pressure to scream these words weighs heavy on my back
Caught between the need to speak and the impulse to react
Rash words like swords thrust into swine
Severed deep and seeping wine
Words like flesh on wire barbs
Tearing wounds from faded scars
And the words wont come
And the stares burn cold
Every time I try to express these feelings,
Words cut my throat like shattered glass
Hung myself on the words of others
Nailed upon this cross of verbs
And im drawing a blank
While burning with the rage
Of a thousand sleepless nights
Searching for my voice
With a mouth filled with blood
And severed tongue
Crawling in the darkness Ive become
Scratching for some substance to retrieve
Knowing that ill never match my peers
DROWNING.
Caught between the need to speak and the impulse to react
Rash words like swords thrust into swine
Severed deep and seeping wine
Words like flesh on wire barbs
Tearing wounds from faded scars
And the words wont come
And the stares burn cold
Every time I try to express these feelings,
Words cut my throat like shattered glass
Hung myself on the words of others
Nailed upon this cross of verbs
And im drawing a blank
While burning with the rage
Of a thousand sleepless nights
Searching for my voice
With a mouth filled with blood
And severed tongue
Crawling in the darkness Ive become
Scratching for some substance to retrieve
Knowing that ill never match my peers
DROWNING.
