wearing me down, down like this
you looked a lot like me
when you were
here in my head, parasite
take your time
eating whats mine.
please, have a bite
taking the back road, you hate me
forward beyond those,
politely
building a new road,
regretting
jumping off a boat, and floating
leave me be, please oh please
cause the darkness protects me
cause you trained me
like the hell you've seen
but i can't yell louder
than any forest screams
if we play around here
we'll dry up every stream
going home, home again
back to the life i live
back to when
i was a blend, of your youth
inside of your womb
mother help me mother help me, leave you soon
taking the back road, you hate me
forward beyond those, politely
building a new road,
regretting jumping off a boat
and floating
leave me here, won't you dear
can you please, come protect me
from these drawings, screaming hellish things
but you have to yell louder
than all the people scream
if we spiral downward
i'll tell you what this means
