Im a larva wrapped in silk
i am dying in burning flesh
let me out, let me ache
let me out, let me ache and itch
get me out of this suit
i go to a funeral every day
i follow these people around
i follow these people like a rats tail
i carry their caskets, i sing them good night
theyre better off without me
beauty is poisonous
disruptive
heaven must be an iron rose
Unfolding
oh, let me in, let me out, let me in, let me out!
this is a retirement
from plumbing the veins of rats and kings
let the stars be my eyes then
unchain the knuckles and latches, unbutton my wrists
my skin so thin you can see black holes within
my eyes so clear they light up the sky
and sometimes ill bend into the silicone veil
and enter this world again as a ghost
beauty is poisonous
disruptive
heaven must be an iron rose
Unfolding
oh, let me in, let me out, let me in, let me out!
