Breathe Soundless Light

Windows are boarded so the world won't seep in They won't force their change on me if the light in here's kept dim Smiling and drowning, the water in my lungs has brimmed Trying desperately to tread water without the use of your limbs Time passes by on pendulum and hinge I don't know how long it's been Peddling perspective outside the walls you built so thin Desperation belongs to me but I know l've earned it So l'll sit and stare as the world goes to shit I am ignorant and I am innocent For I am hopeless, if I give in hell win Now we can see how it ends before it begins Self-flagellate and sing your favourite hymn Hand me down rhetoric we regurgitate from kin Stitch up the stigmata to shield your eyes from the wind forced down memory holes As we change their origins As distant laughter turns to a sickly grin My bones are crawling inside my skin So my silence can be infinite
