lyrics

Chorus
________________________________________
You tripped and fell
And threw all this into an empty well
You left all of this
Behind to decay in piss

Verse 1
________________________________________
There once was a man
Who had defect
Destroying light
Like we've all done...
(we have broken, we've all fallen
and stabbed all our chances to pick it up)
Our roses wither
From the blizzard
The sun was blocked
By your head
Spiralling vaccum
Swirling away
Leaving destruction
Planting a seed of decay

Verse 2
________________________________________
It is birthing
It is scathing
It is freezing
It is failing
The pathetic
Is deflating

(Verse 2, Chorus)

Verse 3
________________________________________
There was a woman
Who had to stand up
Emitting light
Like we should do
(We must repair, we must sparkle
and embrace every chance to become)
Our roses wither
From the blizzard
Ray exposure
Embracing through her warmth
The strongest limb
Fulfilling past it's use
But I can still fall apart
If the weather lets me

Verse 4
________________________________________
The resin is too bitter
Far too bitter to inhale
The resin is too sticky
Far too sticky to throw away
