Some Splintered Self Lyrics


Forced to hide where hope dissolves

In fissures deep, where fear evolves

No home to rest, no sky to trust

Your splintered self in layered dust

My breath slips out between the seams

I am the void inside your schemes

I live inside your cracks of being

Not whole, not dead, just barely seen

Not here, not there, just in the seams

I carve my name into your screams

Smoke that coils and won’t ignite

Stuck between the dark and the light

I am the fire, I am the rain

You're just echo caught in pain

I bleed through gaps you don't perceive

Slowly corrode what you conceive

A fracture deep inside your skull

A breath that shakes your rotting hull

I am the hunger, fully alight

No mercy left, just storms inside

Your life is struggle and decay

I grow in moments when you fail

I live inside your cracks of being

Not whole, not dead, just barely seen

Not here, not there, just in the seams

I carve my name into your screams
