Coma Eternal - Counterparts (To Accept And Pass Away) lyrics

rate me

Your words are scalpels tracing over the skin of a corpse.<br />

Tearing into skin that will never bleed for you, no matter how deep the cut.<br />

Riding tidal waves run off stagnant like a film of waste.<br />

Pools of garbage standing still.<br />

We rot in unison, single file as a whole.<br />

Petty differences do not register as barriers.<br />

Like road kill bloating in the sun.<br />

Playing mother in the form of an incunator.<br />

So beautifully vile.<br />

Cloudy cotton ball vision gradually gives way to clarity.<br />

We all fade out between the lines.<br />

On even numbers we fall apart.<br />

No exceptions, no apologies.<br />

A universal period to end everyone's story.<br />

Empathy, shoulders to lean on.<br />

A life vest to make treading water possible.<br />

Each and every one of us in the same mess, sinking together in the same quick sand.<br />

Wasting away, side by side.<br />

Salvation is irrelevant if we are all ghosts.
