[Verse 1]
Icicles of a medial at unease
Please just pull me together and repair me
Old thoughts floating above a new horizon
Something I'll never doubt; I know I'm rotten
Breaking, snapping fingers
Cracking visions
Right behind my 700th eye
"Are you alright?"
Frigid, interlocking
Wooden men are watching
Filling me with polar fear
As it appears
[Pre-Chorus 1]
All this time, I've felt like my time to go would arrive
That it can't last forever; I've been decaying
Moldy scaffolding, ritual strangling
No matter what I try, I seem to stay alive
[Chorus 1]
My body should be cold
The eyes of maggots gazing through to my soul
I left so long ago
Behind me are the tears I couldn't control
[Bridge]
Now with nowhere to go
I closed my eyes and fell in the snow
Lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
[Verse 2]
Heaven's melancholy
Higher voices calling
Through my 700th eye
But I'm alright
Frostbite doesn't hurt me
Aptly negating my mortality
It's hard, but I'm alright
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All this time, I've waited
My death was recreated
So this would last forever
Accepting agony
Cruel indifference, lonely sufferance
Returning to a time when I was still alive
All this time, I've felt like my time to go would arrive
That it can't last forever; I've been decaying
God's deliverance, bygone innocence
These credences I've always feared were never even real
[Chorus 2]
My body decomposed
The eyes of maggots gazing through to my soul
Cotard and I alone
In a paranoid and barren funeral home
[Outro]
The eyes of maggots gazing through to my soul
In a paranoid and barren funeral home
