The Lake Of Twisted Limbs - Pridelands

There is a feeling I’m unfamiliar with

You say it’s like you’re sleeping in a lake of twisted limbs

So I reach out for you in the dark

Trying to echo-locate the beating of your heart

Again

You try to shield me, but it’s scrawled across your face

Say you can’t reach me, as you turn and hide away

I’m trying to help you breathe, but you’re smothered underneath

All of the hurt and hidden bodies you don’t dare speak of at all

The light, ever fleeting as it was

Coddled me into a frame no-one could bear to touch

But I know that I can save you

So I rach out for you in the dark

Trying to echo-locate th beating of your heart

Take my leave, I will follow you beyond

Trying to echo-locate and bring you back to us

Again
