Batter

[Verse 1]
I took my last breath
As the plane crashed
I don’t even think that I got to let it out
And I don’t know if you noticed
I don’t know if you noticed yet
But there’s a drought around these parts
There’s no water in the well
The dry spell, the dry spell

[Verse 2]
Don’t let your demons
Take you to the cleaners
Fix your posture
While you call your mother
Draw a picture, it lasts longer
A body’s sacred
When it’s naked
So go ahead
And let it
Be a Bible for another
Blood’s your compass
Let it wander
May it stick thick like a slaughter
Hallelujah

[Verse 3]
Now I return to my first purpose
A sharp breath exhaled beneath the surface
Where lungs collapse like demolition
And the pulse ceases to quicken 'til
I become as sweet as nothing
I’m nothing now
Just nothing now
I’m nothing now
Nothing now
Nothing now
Nothing, I am nothing

[Verse 4]
From the plane
I called your name
But it didn’t matter
You were home baking
A birthday cake
Cracking an egg
Into the batter
You had a little bit of batter
A little bit of batter
On your face
