All punctures nearly healed
Leaving scars and broken seals
Echoes form a stain
Drips into a poison I can't taste
Dark cocoon on silent night
Comes a monster dressed in white
Small cut give way to sky
Make you think you've seen the light
Feel it kick you to your knees
While it burns at your teeth
Suckles deep, sweet regret
To again be pulled beneath
Trace my veins with the lost
Like the struggle of the moth
Always drawn towards the light
I'll break free tonight
Crawl inside, world sewn shut
Wait to see what you become
In a fit, cut out your tongue
Blind yourself from what you've done
Clawing on to break and fix
Fruitless time spent to resist
Feel the taste of better days
To die alone in crushing bliss
