lyrics

scrub the body, or leave it in the lake
it doesn't matter anyway what mistakes you make
pull out the eyes, and eat its sight
vomit the dross from in you
pity yourself just like you used to

I don't need anything, beyond a second coming
the first never goes too far
and I need to feel powerful
like everything breaks under me
like I'm the force of my own reckoning

pity me like you would a god
let me be reborn above
every hierarchical scheme
you hold onto just to believe

apply everything you see into something that you may need
let me in just to feed
let me hold down everything

wash the body in the lake, and break all of its limbs away
the things you want and you can't speak
the things that it no longer needs

it's just the flesh.
it's just a thing to get past.
they tell me when you start to dissect
it's more familiar than you'd expect

summon me like the demons in your dreams, creep into your bed sheets
I can set your body free, I can set your body free
give it to the earth so he can become what he wants to be
a part of everything

I can set your body free
drown it til it satiates me
I can make you feel something
a part of everything
