[Intro] [Switch to Female 1] No more half measures. This one takes almost everything left. [Verse 1] [Switch to Female 1] I open the fourth binding and feel the floor leave me The language comes out like it’s tearing its way free Two of the remaining shapes lock in place at once While something essential inside me goes permanently quiet My vision tunnels hard Sound drops to a low roar I stay upright through pure refusal But the cost is no longer theoretical [Pre-Chorus] [Switch to Female 1] This is the one that doesn’t give change back I feel entire rooms inside myself go dark And stay dark [Chorus] [Switch to Female 1] I burn what I was saving for the end And the dark takes it without ceremony Two more stop moving While I try to remember why I still need to breathe [Verse 2] [Switch to Female 1] The last construct is still free I can feel it watching the new silence My hands no longer answer the way they should The spear is a memory The rites are a ledger written in things I won’t get back I drop to one knee because the body demands it Not surrender Just physics finally collecting What the will kept postponing [Pre-Chorus] [Switch to Female 1] This is the one that doesn’t give change back I feel entire rooms inside myself go dark And stay dark [Chorus] [Switch to Female 1] I burn what I was saving for the end And the dark takes it without ceremony Two more stop moving While I try to remember why I still need to breathe [Bridge] [Switch to Male 1] Almost empty. We can both feel it. [Switch to Female 1] Empty is still not finished I have one name left And one binding left to spend [Chorus] [Switch to Female 1] I burn what I was saving for the end And the dark takes it without ceremony Two more stop moving While I try to remember why I still need to breathe[Outro] [Switch to Female 1] Three sealed. One still free. And I am running on the last of the last.
