Sinkin’ like a stone
The words are so unknown
And I once was gold
Enraptured in your kiss
Brushing fingertips
And I once was cold
You’re asking me to speak
But since I don’t feel like me
It’s emptying out all I’ve been told
Trauma based in fear are like electricians in my ear
The wiring is cut and my shell has been sold
Piece by piece, piece by piece
Pieces tie and are broken in the light
Memory fades and pushes my old self out of sight
I hear you today, and then I see myself cry
Disassociating from my own demise
The milk was spilled onto a galaxy on the floor
Riches, rags and filth are all the same
And they’re at my door
Trying to put back together all of the pieces I was before
Condemning all I’ve been and so much more
Piece by piece, piece by piece
Pieces tie and are broken in the light
Memory fades and pushes my old self out of sight
I hear you today, and then I see myself cry
Disassociating from my own demise
Because pieces tie, because pieces tie
