Help Rid me of this withered shell Help Deliver me from an excessive self Day by day, I dissipate The rumbling beneath It cradles skin and teeth Just skin and teeth A spectacle, a specter The less of me the better A spectacle, a specter The less of me the better Hell Is written in a jagged face It's felt In a cadaverous embrace It's in a mother's nightly weeping It's in a father's righteous rage Hell is beauty Beauty is a cage It's a cage A spectacle, a specter The less of me the better A spectacle, a specter The less of me the better It's the halving of a whole In a perfect loss of control Ask, as if I could explain The implications of my actions The intentions they make plain Ask, as if I ought to know Why I thrive when I'm deprived When there's nothing left to show And ask, as if I could explain Why these intercostal spaces Are my sacred domain And ask, as if I ought to know How could anyone find valuable Or comforting, a clavicle Or why I'd sell my soul For a perfect loss of control For a perfect loss of control
