Hands on the wall
Or stand on your feet
Keep you safe
Keep you free from experiencing
Skin
Touch
Tell me when you’ve had enough
If this is overwhelming wait and see what’s to come
 
Claw at the surface but nothing comes out
So you scratch a little deeper
If there was a doubt
Turn blood into water
To cleanse your insides
Now, don’t you know who you are?
You have been replaced
 
Now it’s all erased
I realise we’re nothing
So close to being perfect
Here’s your parting gift
 
Repressed then and repressed now
Life is getting harder but we can’t see how
Medicated by ones and zeros
Starve the mind and the body follows
Depleted, deprived
Everything eliminated inside
 
Claw at the surface but nothing comes out
So you scratch a little deeper
If there was a doubt
Turn blood into water
To cleanse your insides
But you don’t you know who you are
You have been replaced
 
Now it’s all erased
I realise we’re nothing
So close to being perfect
Here’s your parting gift
 
Reanimate the dead
New flesh glorified
Staring back at you
Seven heads
Seven eyes
Scream into the void
Till our faces turn red
It’s never too late for you to hang your fucking head
 
What am I looking at?
Fucking nothing
Close my eyes, felt a breeze
Hell, at least it’s something real
Tell me what it takes
To sleep soundly these days
One eye over your shoulder
The other on your grave
 
Take a bow
You’re a god now
Rags to riches
Riches to new skin
You must be proud
“You should kill for this”
It will kill for you
It will kill
It will kill you too
 
Now it’s all erased
I realise we’re nothing
So close to being perfect
Here’s your parting gift
 
Erased
Erased
Erased
