Days Gone By - Skeleton (Bonus Track)

How do I
Confess to someone
That not even my skeleton
Is keeping me together
I'm the sound of breaking bones under the weight of existence
Digesting pain is an intricate work of shading
And I'm still experimenting with the colors
Until the proper combination will make the suffering fade
Deathwishes set their feet
Where their profane limbs
Should have never entered
Finding home in every hole
I'm finding home in every floor
I've lifted my own skin
Just to look at what's below
I've buried all my friends
Where once were my bones
There is not an upward turn I can see
There is no clean air I can breathe
How can I get on my knees if there is no sun to please
How can I wait the sunrise if there are no eyes to see
Slit my throat so I won't be able to silence my words
My skeleton has been the puppeteer of the betrayal
Like our blood our wounds now taste the same
Gouge my eyes and adorn you so you're forced to witness the decay
Gouge my eyes
Witness the dread
My skeleton
At the end of the thread
Deathwishes set their feet
Where their profane limbs
Should have never entered
Finding home in every hole
I'm finding home in every floor
I've lifted my own skin
Just to look at what's below
I've buried all my friends
Where once were my bones
There is not an upward turn I can see
There is no clean air I can breathe
How can I get on my knees if there is no sun to please
How can I wait the sunrise if there are no eyes to see
Gouge my eyes
