My unfortunate crisis is a crack in the window
There’s not a lot of time left now.. before the crash of the glass
Even my intention cuts like a blade
Somethin’ bought the wreck that I crave
Slivers in the air just say your prayers
Breathe in deep if you care
Almost hopeless cope it’s a stress test
Nails on the board and I’m restless
Almost ghostless ya barely noticed
My skeleton’s undressed
This particular dilemma is a fractured skull
And the vines are climbing, growing like snakes out of the socket holes
Even as the roots arrest my feet
Still straining for the good sun’s heat
Screamin’ at the clouds just let me out
But the sound manifests like doubt
Almost hopeless cope it’s a stress test
Nails on the board and I’m restless
Almost ghostless ya barely noticed
My skeleton’s undressed
My skeleton bare bones no skin
Wash my hands of the sin
