lyrics
Take the pictures
From the walls
They only feed the
Pressure in my chest.
Hide the evidence
And burn the manuscripts
Til we cannot remember
Where we came from.
Now follow
My hands and eyes are tired
I just long to be released
Now follow
I will give you all I am
If just to be released.
Swiftly flowing
Through the channel
The water rushes
To the sea.
The river swells up
The river hides itself
In someone’s arms
Where it will not be seen .
Now follow
My hands and eyes are tired
I just long to be released
Now follow
I will give you all I am
If just to be released.
But still
But still
It will eat me
But still
But still
It will eat everything
Don’t come near me
I will destroy you
Everything is over
Fold the pages
Take notes in the
Margins you can still
Feel what you’re missing.
For just one time
I will attain it
Finally everything I want
Is everything I need to breathe.
Now follow
My hands and eyes are tired
I just long to be released
Now follow
I will give you all I am
If just to be released.
But still
But still
It will eat everything
Don’t come near me
I will destroy you
Everything is over
