lyrics
The floorboard creaks, one step after another.
Damp from the morning fog, her skin glistens
in the pale light through the window.
These years of repetition, wearing thin.
Despair leaks from the lining of the walls above,
bringing an infinite numbness.
My arms at my chest, positioning my fingers.
Falling into eternal rest.
Impaled by misery’s stake, at her hand.
I’ve been here for days.
The air thickens.
As the sky falls, blending into the dirt.
Breathing fades.
She peels the skin from my body.
To me, this torture is painless.
