Famke - Burnt By The Sun

I picked it up.

I held it.

I threw it away.

I strayed

By far one of the dumbest things I’ve done to myself

No embracement of the truth, it’s gone

Progress unwound.

Ideals shut down

Pin it on me.

Take me away

I’m guilty as charged.

You can call out

This is my forceful vice struggling to gain some life

Sometimes when you live with something for so long you can’t break it

Can’t put it down, can’t walk away

Beauty in my mind defined by images shot into my mind

Brain scan.

Observe the man I am

Look at my hands.

I’m trembling at the mistakes I live

One day I’m awake.

The next day I’m dead

This is not real.

This I know

But it calls on me.

How does this work?

It’s so fucking twisted.

It takes me away

It sweeps me off my feet.

I know how this goes

I’ve dealt with this before.

Day one, liquefy my life

Take my insides out.

Hang them on a wall

The beauty.

Self-security works itself into a hole

But I can feel the cold from here

And I know it’s cold

Blisters ravaged my life

The life that I claimed back

Turned it around
