The Death (Nervosa) - Showbread
I'm going to sleep
The day is long, the night never ends
I'm going to sleep
There are birds and insects calling to me
Hidden in the ribs of the dark
I am going to find a home
Some place I can rest
And wrap a cold rag around the meat inside my chest
If you find me, carry me home
Come and find me my love
If it's not too late, you'll know where to look
I leave no tracks, no scent, no trace
If it's not too late, you'll know where to look
Please forget the things I said and I wrote
Forget them and throw them away
Forget the things that I wrecked and I broke
Forget me and throw me away
The dark to me is a comfort
It offers blindness to me
There are so many horrible things in the light
They hurt for me to see
If you find me, carry me home
Don't wake me or whisper my name
Lock me in the warmth of your arms
And walk me away from my shame
