(Verse 1)
I woke up on the floor again, the sun refused to rise
There’s mold along the ceiling drawing halos ‘round the flies
My heartbeat feels like something dying slow behind a wall
Every breath is just a warning that I’m waiting to dissolve
(Pre-Chorus)
I keep dragging ‘round a pulse that’s barely mine
My thoughts are rusted teeth
chewing through the night
(Chorus)
There’s static in my veins
like a sickness made of light
Every shadow knows my name
and it stalks me through the night
I’m a fracture in the rain
A ghost without a face
Yeah, the world keeps moving
but I’m locked beneath the waves
(Verse 2)
I found a note I wrote myself, said “don’t come back alive”
But I fold it like a prayer I know will never reach the sky
I walk into the darkness ‘cause it feels like where I’m from
And the moon looks like an eye just waiting for me to succumb
(Pre-Chorus)
Nothing drowns you slow like the words you never said
And I’m choking on the silence
as it nests inside my head
(Chorus)
There’s static in my veins
like a poison made of grief
Every echo says my name
like it wants the last of me
I’m a fracture in the rain
A ghost without a face
Yeah, the world keeps moving
but I’m locked beneath the waves
(Bridge)
I scrape the stars off the ceiling
but the sky just won’t forgive
There’s a grave inside my shadow
where the parts I lost still live
(Breakdown)
If I scream into the night
will it carve me out a grave?
Or am I just a fading outline
no one ever meant to save?
(Final Chorus)
There’s static in my veins
and it’s louder than my bones
I keep drowning in the noise
of the dark that feels like home
I’m a fracture in the rain
a ghost stuck out of phase
Yeah, the world keeps spinning
but I’m buried in the haze
BLACKLARK
