Everything feels wrong Like I no longer belong Can't fly, wings covered in lead and rust Can't run, knees sink in the dust Can't walk, feet worn to the bone Is there some sin I must atone? So I crawl Inch by inch I'll crawl Crawl away Crawl away 'Till my sight goes gray Can you hear it now? It sounds like nothin' tryin' to be somethin' Like a ghost spittin' nails My voice tries, but just fails No sound will ever satisfy So I'll butcher another lullaby When'd I even get here? I'll never know, I fear Who knew broken bones could go so far Yeah, each breath like glass through my lung But don't we live for the struggle? Keep moving though we stumble So I crawl Through the ash of it all Crawl away Crawl away ‘Til I forget what I saw Can you hear it now? It sounds like nothin' tryin' to be somethin' Like a ghost spittin' nails My voice tries, but just fails No sound will ever satisfy So I'll butcher another lullaby I dreamt of a choir of psychic screams They sang in key, but not for me I begged them for a melody They gave me a eulogy Can you hear it now? It's the hush between the hells and the heavens Like rain that forgot how to fall Like a name carved too deep on a wall No sound will ever satisfy So I'll butcher another lullaby With a voice too tired to even cry So hush now, soul Sing yourself goodbye... ----------------------------------------------------------- © 2025 The JesterMC
