By the way you crawl to sedate yourself
Marked for death
You or the lamb
In a circle screaming loss from tired tongues
Hanging up your tired hands
Fingers bleeding out loud
With no pain, no stall, no beginning
There you were like an old wound healing
Scarred: we burst into fire
Get this out of me
Come and play god
Push me to believe
Come and play god
No strength in numbers
No strength in giving up
The light, the doubt, the reasons I sell myself
Why can’t you stop death and the moon from rising
Above my truths to tell?
We were medicated in black
At loss for words
At loss for truth
There you stood like an old wound bleeding
Scar and burst into fire
