i can now hear the silence
nothing has ever been so quiet
hiding behind my drawn eyelids
since life was to me a foreigner
took aspirin for this pain in my head
my overgrown death is standing in the corner
last time we spoke this is what he said:
"i turned off the light at the end of the tunnel
it wasn't water that you drank through a funnel
now you wait and you are a parasite
but you drank"
i can now hear the silence
cloning a masterpiece of violence
it's never been a question of compliance
my innocent eyes were hollowed out
took a drink for this pain in my head
behind me sits a growing shadow of doubt
last time we spoke this is what he said:
"i turned off the light at the end of the tunnel
it wasn't water that you drank through a funnel
now you wait and you are a parasite
but you drank"
and they both strapped me to a chair and fed me amphetamines, stapled my eyes open so I'd see the whole thing as they ripped me apart in so many tiny pieces
"i turned off the light at the end of the tunnel
it wasn't water that you drank through a funnel
now you wait and you are a parasite
but you drank"
