歌词

At least I tried
I offer every morsel of myself
For you to consume
And once my flesh is no longer
I give you bits of my soul
On a plate for eating
I watch as you sprinkle them on your tongue for a taste
And vomit them onto the pavement
And when everything that I once was
Disappears into a haze of dust
And fingernail clippings
Picked scabs and cracked lips
At least I tried
You wonder why I am gone
A shadow of transcendence
A silhouette of what could have been
A forgotten puddle after
After a funeral rain
A lover of the moon
Mourner of the stars
Loather of self
And from my ashes
Hatred blooms
With silvery petals
And wilted leaves
Beautiful and tragic
