Revenant

Original

This burning, scarred

Revenant called "My Best"

Says, "No faking

The sick have never been sicker"

Do you accept the invitation?

Burying your head in the sky

You split so close to the sun

Bodies transform, others, they're done

Chasing these lines that I've drawn, my patience is

Thinning, I'm falling apart as the world stares

Grinning, past my own thoughts, I can't see

A stranger to you, familiar to me

Caged with this for so long

Step into my strength again

I feel that cold rush

With intent to kill, you killed yourself

I was once too raw

Stronger now

My blood runs through all

While my body's passed around

The voices were deafening

It's all much quieter now

Malevolent patience, habits, locations

I absorb into the ground

Dust

Done

Gone

Done

This burning, scarred

Revenant called "My Best"

Says, "No faking

The sick have never been sicker"

Do you accept the invitation?

Burying your head in the sky

You split so close to the sun

Bodies transform, others, they're done
