In my bones there is a dull rot
A drag on grey sands
Every movement feels alive
But turn my heart inside out
The pain nestles in there
Fine in its home
And I wish it would all crumble
I am falling but the ground refuses to move
I am crying but no tears will ever fall
I am breaking but the pressure stays
I am tired and I am tired and I am tired
I wait for a pause that comes and goes
I crave for colour, something to dance on the walls
But bloodshed never happens for a reason
The world is always too quiet
When I scream to loud
An echo of substance
Is not a mirror in the water
