Life without a shell

No armor to hide in no place to dwell

Crawling through the moss in this living hell

The leaves whisper secrets they never tell

What’s this life without a shell

Drip drip the world melts slow

Colors bleed where the shadows grow

I’m naked and lost on the forest floor

A snail without a shell no more no more

The sky folds inward the trees exhale

Every root’s a question every path derails

Slipping on the truth but the grip’s too frail

Just another snail without a shell

The rain hums low like a broken hymn

The forest grins with a twisted whim

Drip drip the world melts slow

Colors bleed where the shadows grow

I’m naked and lost on the forest floor

A snail without a shell no more no more

A spiral dream I can’t escape

Twisting shapes in the green landscape

The ground is breathing the air feels thick

Time bends backward and plays a trick
