An Elegy Written On Porcelain Arms

Fast as you fall apart tonight
Should we pull the plug and let your spirit rest in peace?
Inside this room

Every ounce of pain replaced with
Passing whims of disorder
Another false alarm
You hate the bitter taste of the
Minutes getting shorter

Intoxicating

Chemicals
Keep on flowing through your porcelain arms
Watch the light inside you fade away
As you decay
And leave me here to wait forever

Is there some kind of medicine?
To keep me safe inside again
Just something to numb everything that I fear
Over and over again and again
We're just one step closer to the end

Chemicals
Keep on flowing through your porcelain arms
Watch the light inside you fade away
As you decay
And leave me here to wait forever

And all of the words that I should've said
Keep repeating in my head
I'll carve your name into my chest
In tortured cursive

Cannot feel you in my arms anymore
Your hands are turning grey and motionless as I walk out the door

Chemicals
Keep on flowing through your porcelain arms
Watch the light inside you fade away
As you decay
And leave me here to wait forever

And all of the words that I should've said
Keep repeating in my head
I'll carve your name into my chest
In tortured cursive

Stain these walls red
