Lacerate

Sad bird still sings
But I can't spread my wings
Latched, held captive
Buried alive in damask
My soul, putrefactive
It's sore, it can't unmask

My heart is of brittleness
I see in hued greys
Don't want to drown in bitterness
When coloured were our days

The sad bird still sings
But I can't spread my wings
Fragmented and broken
Like my words gone unspoken

The lace comes and speaks to me
Now I see from where it comes
When it talks, it sings of thee
In dark tints, hollow, numb

The sad bird still sings
But I can't spread my wings
Fragmented and broken
Like my words gone unspoken

The sad bird still sings
But I can't spread my wings

I won't let myself surrender
It won't blacken you, besmear
All I've left of you is tender
I won't let that disappear

The sad bird still sings
But I can't spread my wings
Fragmented and broken
Like my words gone unspoken
