Shards Lyrics

Starkweather Shards

(R. Resmini)
Summon forth the rain  wash away the filth  I can blanch memories  I
can't cleanse my soul  Summon forth the flames, strip flesh from bone  I
can't slough memories they're like second skin  One cut for memory
another for hope  I'm probing for answers  Can only strike a nerve
Cutting cables  Unloading dead weight  Until nothing remains  An innate
self-loathing pouring from every aperture  These holes in my skin let
the darkness out  Let it flow   These holes in my skin let the darkness
out  Let it flow  There's nothing less in this world than what I think
of myself  A broken man  Paint a picture of a broken man  Search - For a
reason  Probe deep  Strike a nerve  The scars have faded weathered away
through the years  All memories remain intact, clear  Crystalline and
unpure  Cutting cables,  Unloading dead weight until nothing remains
These holes in my skin let the darkness out let it flow  In rivulets of
blood that flow down my arms  Into the drain  Rivulets of blood flow
down my arms  Into the drain  An innate self-loathing pouring from every
aperture  Never a truer feeling than pain  To assure me I'm alive
