De Arma - Wretch lyrics

Pluck out my eyes And place them on a pedestal Wash the dirt away Was this how you wanted it to be? Every breath brings a new story Each word a new start With each dream i fall further And further from the truth The night plays tricks Shapes move in the sickly streetlights I can feel your soul upon my skin Drape me in your shame It will never be the same Never could I have seen What any of this would become Lips twitch without sound Tears fall without meaning The pain in my head grows The sickness gnaws within The tearing of my throat The ripping screams pour forth Bloody Lips strips dangle The shreds of my dignity hanging in tatters A festering shroud of sundered humanity Curled up under a blanket of filth It´s impossible to shut out this world And as I choke on my own stink I hear footsteps fade away again The cold return, sudden and sharp I´ll hide in my own mind
