Song Lyrics

"The Sky"

by Showbread
Album: Anorexia

In the beginning there was black, and now there's me
I bend the neck until it cracks and suck the open bleed
I rise up above the spit with talons brightly bared
And hew the children into two, I simply do not care

I am, I am

Open up now world, I have arrived and now you crack
I will break my knuckles, split your teeth and crush the ugly rats
Lay before me world, I will not hide within your womb
I peel my bones against your rocks and seal them in your tomb

My ears are popping
Close your mouth, I know the way
Whisper to me children
Be still and watch me fade away

I drench the dirt with my spit
You swim in its river
The way out is up
I watch you shiver
I am the arctic fingers wrapping around your neck
There is nothing to stop me now no fear and no regret
