Skin

I rip at my skin with nails I gnawed short
Claw and tear until I pluck my nerves
Unwind the fibers that hold me together
Slashing the sutures that have made me whole

Dig my way out
Dig my way out

Blisters and sores split and bleed until I feel nothing
Marrow aches for cleansing fire's purifying touch

Just let go, you're nothing to everyone
Shut your eyes, there's nothing for you here

I wrestle with the whispers
Hatred softly spoken
A voice in my mind
Sings "Fire has no conscience"

Let it spread
Grow and consume all of me
Let it spread
Grow and consume all of me
Let it spread
Grow and consume all of me

Dig my way out
Dig my way out
