Skin on, sun's out
Forgot what I was afraid about
Unweave cobwebs
But mind the serpents under steps
Everything I've loved has taught me to seethe
So I can do anything with clenched teeth
Shield down, bets off
What was vicious is now soft
Handful of fire
Something sharp within the other
Gentleness never came easy to me
But I can do anything with clenched teeth
Here come the pins and the needles
I've been lifeless for so long
I regret all my evil
Maybe I was mortal all along
Eyes wide, child-like
To be reborn you have to die
Try to conflate
Being a sinner with being a saint
Falling in love with the duality
And I don't even have to clench my teeth
Here come the pins and needles
I've been lifeless for so long
I regret all my evil
Maybe I was mortal all along
Here come the muck and mire
I've been escaping for so long
I regret being a liar
Maybe I was mortal all along
I want to scream
Open my ribcage, reveal the blood and guts beneath
I want to scream
Open my ribcage, reveal the blood and guts beneath
