I've got death on my hips
and sweat on my lips
and a never ending chain of thoughts
Without you around
I've got free time to gloom
and a solace seeking scream
that can silence a room
One more reason is all that I need
To step back off this ledge
and make a legend of me
With a whisper of words
and a canteen of tears
can't bring back the phrases
that I ache to hear
Step back from your presence
denounce it once more
Feel the weight of my pleasure
like the creaks in the floor
It's fictitious for me
to ponder and sweat
all the needs that were needed
were never quite met
Long disillusions brought a
far sharper focus
than one could have sought
with a handful of Locusts
A vague recollection
stands between me
and suffocation
a bridge still burning
a fiery dedication
to hollow me out
after filling me up
I'm losing my mind
a million memories
undone
Enough is too much
and I'm losing my focus
All I'm left with is this
handful of Locusts
Long disillusions brought a
far sharper focus
than one could have sought
with a handful of Locusts
Enough is too much
and I'm losing my focus
All I'm left with is this
handful of Locusts
