[Verse 1]
Oxidated cathedral of my chest
Carved ribs
Like warped window frames
I siphon the silence
Distill every breath
Into pigments of pressure and flame
Microcosmic cyclone in my throat
Every gasp
A geometry of ghosts
I exhume the invisible
Viscous and vast
Smear the unseen on the edge of the glass
[Chorus]
I am drawing air with paint
Etching every gasp you waste
Turn your quiet into stain
On a canvas made of veins
I am drawing air with paint
Breathing storms you can’t contain
When the void begins to faint
I resuscitate with paint
[Verse 2]
Granulated whispers in my lungs
Pulverized prayers
Metallic and numb
I liquefy ether
Encase it in strokes
Strangle the vacuum in spiraling smoke
Chromatic lungs coughing spectrums of dust
Every exhale corrodes into rust
I hammer the nothing
I brand it with hue
Make the absence take shape around you (ugh)
[Chorus]
I am drawing air with paint
Etching every gasp you waste
Turn your quiet into stain
On a canvas made of veins
I am drawing air with paint
Breathing storms you can’t contain
When the void begins to faint
I resuscitate with paint
[Bridge]
[Guitars bloom into high
Aching harmony]
Colorblind heavens
Choke on my storms
Vacuum in terror
Learns to take form
I crucify shadows
On splintered light
Inhaling the formless
Exhaling its spine (yeah)
[Chorus]
I am drawing air with paint
Etching every gasp you waste
Turn your quiet into stain
On a canvas made of veins
I am drawing air with paint
Breathing storms you can’t contain
When the void begins to faint
I resuscitate with paint
