Petrichor: Act III: The Body Lyrics

Dissolve and coagulate

Free to eradicate

Symbolize equilibrium

Shrouded sense of delirium

The sun upon seasons, moon upon the tides

Desire without reason, shallow truth and lies

Such perfection taken shape

I want you all to myself now baby

I am the only one you need

So become a part of me and never leave

You can never leave

You can never leave

You can never leave

You can never leave

You can never leave

You can never leave

I've come to terms

With the body I've been given today

I am the birth

Of a fetishised filth and decay

It's what I am

Basic instinct is what keeps me alive

Intrusive thoughts

Constant battles trying just to survive

Walking tightropes between pleasure and pain

The stress remains, not sure how much left that I can retain

Fractured from my fatal flaws, it's left me stoic and bitter

But I grow sick of grief and try to stay heroic with vigor

I own

The flesh that hates itself and this place

The war is fought not with your weapons

But with words of disgrace

When every day

Feels like it's exactly the same

The motivation's non-existent

And nobody's to blame, but me
