Garden Of Eyes

Scared of the light
So I stay inside where it's dark all the time
It's just me, myself and I
Plying the wings off butterflies

Feeding remnants to the ravens through the gaps in my ribcage
I forsake it, licked the stain off, came in closer, broke the blade off
Dig dirt to the dirge of a thousand revenants, an audience of organic mannequins
Grave bells harmonise, the coffin knocks from the inside
Of the back of my mind where you rot
I see you when my eyes roll back
Ornaments of shame, lifeless through a glass pane

Lifeless through a glass pane

Losing teeth in my sleep, mouth full of blood when I wake up
I found my God, face down in the mud

Torn from the burden of your warmth
Scared of the light, so I stay inside
Captive to time in flow
Reaping all that I have sown
In the garden where nothing grows

Finally alone
In the garden where nothing fucking grows

How much can love hurt
If I kill it at birth

I never ask for this
I begged for it
