|
The toxic glow of this botched city |
|
Hums in time with my nightmares |
|
Murmuring sinister resonance |
|
The shocking and the shaping of air |
|
Trapped in a shivering carcass |
|
Part of a throbbing crowd |
|
Every space is constantly trembling |
|
Stay awake, lights go out |
|
Time speeds up, I get older |
|
Get your dead hand of my shoulder |
|
You are a present absence |
|
Spectral traces everywhere |
|
You set the darkness echoing |
|
Chair creaks, you're not there |
|
Vibration through my body |
|
It hits my chest and throat |
|
At the point of suffocation I let go |
|
Deafening whispered threats |
|
Like an unknowable breath |
|
Rising in a hollow swell |
|
Shrill bloody red |
|
All streets are screaming empty |
|
Frequencies sing your ghost |
|
We've had our time together |
|
Now I've got to let you go |
