Broken Bones (demo) Lyrics

Wooden slates, bricks and mortar

Over-ripe body spilling over.

Here once were times and always faces

Ghost-like, learing, transient, fading.

These scattered remains an unholy immolation.

And half standing and half in despair.

Like a dying gasp in an empty room.

Here broken, there open

All falling and twisted

The years abandoned slowly now

Leak out in a mass of coloured grey

Disappear in a fluctuant haze.

The rain can't wash away the smells

Of human lives, of torment

Or cellular fusion, the birth of children

A thousand different moments.

Now a wash of screaming incidents

Flicker on each falling raindrop.

A fluid library of scattered recollection.

And so embracing, I must leave now.

As the city expands, grasping feverishly

With metal talons.

A carcass rotting, spilling over.
