Silt

White noise

Who do you think you're fooling?

Three pages a day, still couldn't get away

I'm tired

Of looking you in the face

Your words are dirty and your body's all bent out of shape

Bury yourself in the dirt

To feel closer to God

You need to see what you've done to me

Don't turn away, you can't retreat

A fractured offer for the opening

The mirror image of a bad dream

Undone

Tell me once you've had enough

The Earth is calling you home, the ire creeping back up

Failsafe, for plans made in the dust

A vacant letter and the word of those who've ripped it up

You need to see what you've done to me

Don't turn away, you can't retreat

A fractured offer for the opening

The mirror image of a bad dream

You need to see what you've done to me

Don't turn away, you can't retrieve

A cursed bag of broken things

The silt lays heavy and I can't see
