Possession!
Subject to the classic hexes again
Swab my bile from the floor (before it burns a hole)
Grovel in the acid
Blister your knees on the overgrowth of all you've done to fail me
Cast your flag out
Wave me goodbye
Find a new home
Bury yourself within\
SAIL! SAIL!
But take a piece of me with you...
You didn't need to be there
Made your decision and played the victim
Under my skin so thoroughly
Entirely taken up my mind
Why can't I let your influence die?
Which habits are mine?
What of my life is sourced from you?
I don't really wanna know
Been over ten years
Finally feel like I have control
Still I don't feel right
Feel like I don't own myself
Walk in our lives on a whim to
Transfer your trauma to us
SAIL! SAIL!
But take a piece of me with you...

Rot for me!
Rot for me, baby!
I'm tired of begging you to be better
Climb the wreckage, swan dive into the pavement
You're on all sides but your own, safe travels
Drowned all my inhibition, now all that's left is you!
And how many faces do you have exactly? 4? 6? 8?
12 eyes, multicolored lies
Fucking look at me
Fucking look at me
As I shatter your concentration

Like bringing your word to a knife fight
Stray feathers floating out of your wounds
Everything's wrong, spears in your back
Neither the world or I are satisfied yet
A fine line of past lives
Your lifetime beside mine
The veil thins (Take aim!)
What are you? (Shot down!)
A convict, blackening your wings
It's the flight of the valkyrie, shot down! shot down!
It's the flight of the valkyrie, shot down! shot down!
Tampered wings still fly
I'm aiming toward the sky
For a reason why
But that'd be giving you too much credit

She's been creeping through my walls (under the floors, in the pipes!)
Blocking exits, busting out old lights
Now she's got me surrounded, got no choice must surrender
The alloy forms (your vicious playback)
The visions in my head
What could've been (dive into me)
A reach for your hand
Misunderstood (dusk hits your face)
The influence you had
Misunderstood (but you reject it)
The influence you had
Dusk hits your face but your shine shames the moon
Open my cocoon like a bandage, I know this pain is temporary
I'm not sure if temporary covers it, it's more like paralysis
I'll help you haunt me

If you ever feel safe please remember i'm out there
Your personal roach, undying
This world is my liminal space, your digital sea to drown in when i'm bored with you
I wouldn't play with my food but you make it so easy
Your personal roach, undying
I miss the pain of the night before but I hardly even knew her
Bury me shallow, I will come back

promises made, promise kept
they're different things
progress lost its all the same
abusive found family
theres a waiting room in purgatory
prayer circles made up from police tape
writing spells made up of chalk outlines
one bone broken for every twig snapped
save your breath and rest your head
whatever you say doesn't matter now
but it can and will be used against you
as we prepare for your execution
ANKLES CHAINED TO CINDER BLOCKS
WALK THE PLANK

Symbiotic yet calculated
As you weaponize your incompetence
I'm beginning to feel like
A fabrication of everything you hate
How can I break out of this shell?
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain, nothing
How can I break out of this shell?
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain, nothing
This is your new designation: cannon fodder
Strike the iron while it's burning
Beat this out of me
And i'll pretend i'm not effected as my pen whittles away
Absentmindedly the words transport themselves to page
And as I keep the floodgates closed please understand;
I'm doing everything I can not to resent you
Fallen apart at the seams
Unworthy, undeserving
Should I forsake this heart before the shatter?
Nothing to lose
