lyrics

These ribs a cage for lonely heart beasts
Empty on display I parade around all the pieces lost
What these hands can't touch have made them useless to me
I've made friends with bricks who never bleed
In here it's always midnight
Where winter never leaves
I'm digging for a future where all my scars are seen
I'll cut this weight from my chest And move on a bit slower
Alone with the ghosts that all know me by name I'll cut away the weak and become more like these bricks
These hands can't touch so I'll make them into fists
These ribs cage lonely heart beats
There's no recognizing me now
I'm just heart attacks and teeth
These ribs a lonely cage
And I'd love to love something
But you see i got this pain
And even though I cut out my tongue
I can still taste her name
The lonely beast I have cut from it's cage
Today I float, a ghost forever
Brick wrist, red rage
Today I weighed myself with out my heart And though I was lighter I felt no relief
(Tonight I'll find the rest I need in the darkness of my own eyes)
