Burn - Counterparts

I’ve grown accustomed to losing sleep

Sweep me off my feet

Dig your nails into my wounds and pull

A lucid dream

Where my chest will collapse from the weight of a fictitious ghost

Tear through me, sacrifice me to your sea

With broken arms I’m left to carry my shell

With no help from the current

Lifeless, I am dragging me down

Hollow, I’m left to fend for myself

Forget everything that you’ve come to know

We are not meant for much but to carry our own misery

Is there a God cursing every step that I take?

Or have I been forced to commit myself to the dirt?

We’re chasing the light in the darkest of graves

But the fortunate ones know to wait until mourning

Be still

Serenity blesses us in waves

And with eyes like mountains, we’re drawn to the brow

Leave this life behind and take the next step in the right direction Stare at

the sky, and offer yourself to circumstance

Be the burn

Burn me alive

Be the burn

Burn me alive
