Sewn
expel, release
expel, release
organs filling up with grease
release, expel
release, expel
drowning, swimming, feelings dwell
theres a dark cave where spirits hide
secret thoughts exist inside
misty, noxious, humid slime
in the cave inside my mind
lost my footing crawling through
just wanted to get to you
bursting sores across my skin
hide my neck and mask my chin
my lips are sewn together with the thread of my sins
please let go of your scissors, don’t open me
death warms me up while life freezes my fingers
carry me away from this suit of pain
i’m locked inside but no sense lingers
the sludge is muffled, squeeze my brain
