Paper Thin
I have seen the future in a vision
In it I saw a corpse wearing my skin
Withers 'til it's paper thin
Melts into a skeleton and it's gone
I'm left with an empty heart and an empty soul
And I have lost each piece trying to be whole
We each got a cut
Of Hemingway's heart and Sexton's soul
Well I know that I'm a heavy load
In tough terrain I'll be the first to go
To whom it may concern
Can you be concerned about me
The bait's so good it's worth it getting trapped
I feel my shadow and I hear him laugh
But I find nothing funny
I'm a poison that tastes like honey
Yeah I'm tempting
I've buried my past selves in a tomb of skin
I've found each and every one in the womb again
Some light can't be seen
Not all my wounds bleed
But none are healing
In it I saw a corpse wearing my skin
Withers 'til it's paper thin
Melts into a skeleton and it's gone
I'm left with an empty heart and an empty soul
And I have lost each piece trying to be whole
We each got a cut
Of Hemingway's heart and Sexton's soul
Well I know that I'm a heavy load
In tough terrain I'll be the first to go
To whom it may concern
Can you be concerned about me
The bait's so good it's worth it getting trapped
I feel my shadow and I hear him laugh
But I find nothing funny
I'm a poison that tastes like honey
Yeah I'm tempting
I've buried my past selves in a tomb of skin
I've found each and every one in the womb again
Some light can't be seen
Not all my wounds bleed
But none are healing
