Noctourniquet

My anguish told you
A persistent lie


The parasitic psychics that you push by wheel
Were spoken to me everytime


And like a charlatan
You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time


These pacts we keep in secret
Drinking from a well that was cured by drought


My torment adores you
When my strings are tied


Out of compulsion I must decimate
The sapless embryonic miles


And like a charlatan
You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time


These pacts we keep in secret
Drinking from a well that was cured by drought


My knives are burrowed voices
Glistened by the handles so they won't let go


These limbs are out of reaches
Extensions of a spirit that is not controlled


My heart is trapped inside
And I refuse to accept this throne


My night's unfolding
Reads like a page of test results


This sterile codex
Is missing all my last resolve


And like a charlatan
You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time


These pacts we keep in secret
Drinking from a well that was cured by drought
