Break the Skin Lyrics

Little seed

How can you know

My solemn bed

Beneath the ground

Within this filth

It will be found

Didn't mother

Teach you then

Before the rain

And cutting wind

Born of sweet

And docile limbs

Little seed

You're far from home

Suffocated

By these thorns

Under shit

And food for worms

Break the skin that binds you

Find the will to germinate

I'll be here to hide you

Little saplings in my cage

Break the skin that binds you

In the shadows we create

I'll be here to feed you

Little tombstone stowaway

Nestled deep

Within these bones

I'll keep you

Anchored from the flood

While you lick

What's left of blood

Deaf and blind

You're under foot

No surprise

No second look

Fend off

Rotting innards

Break the skin that binds you

Find the will to germinate

I'll be here to hide you

Little saplings in my cage

Break the skin that binds you

In the shadows we create

I'll be here to feed you

Little tombstone stowaway

Break the skin that binds you

Find the will to germinate

I'll be here to hide you

Little saplings in my cage

Break the skin that binds you

Become the forest

We'll create

I'll be gone within you

Little tombstone stowaway

Stowaway
