I tell you when to speak To get up from your seat You’re wearing the letter, abettor See what you’ve done to me I know there’s nothing left to be I know there is no use There is no forever and ever Can’t fix what once was whole
It used to follow me wherever Like vines that grew I’d run to hold myself together Like vines that grew Silent so long After the wait After I’m on my own I illuminate
Below the strong are weak What talked has turned to meat I let it get redder and redder What tore inside of me Alone I’m my enemy Alone I see the truth I know that together or severed I’ll dig out from the hole
It used to follow me wherever Like vines that grew I’d run to hold myself together Like vines that grew Silent so long After the wait After I’m on my own I illuminate
