Strings of Separation - Counterparts

Drifting through decaying arteries

Repurposing the shell that I have severed to withstand paralysis

Straining as my eyes lose the ability to see

Displaced by my disease pursuing darkness

Instinct will carry me across a fragile plain

To burn in the deficiency of sun

Scatter my remains when the flesh withers away

Remember me for all I failed to be

When my misery comes to an end

Deliver me to a place I’ll never leave

I wish I could feel safer in my skin

Chiseling my name into the clouds

To alleviate the burden of the dead

That wander without direction

Depart from the existence I’ve denounced

Embedded in the souls that I once lead

Sewing strings of separation in the centre of a storm

I wish I could feel safer in my skin

I wish I could feel safer in my skin

Remember me for all I failed to be

When my misery comes to an end

Deliver me to a place I’ll never leave

I wish I could feel safer in my skin
