Fingers Slowly Peeling

from SALINE by Osiris Saline

/

lyrics

Cutting the rope
Stared as they dropped
Taking the provision
Engineered indecision

Climbed past the lust
Of a friendship gone awry
Trusted in too many
And let them fade with time

Broke all those hearts
And lied with the truth
Stood upon promise
And destroyed the gracious group

Held on to tendons
Of the lost & the drunk
Perched on ivory tower
As others clawed then sunk

I was the gargoyle of the isolated martyr
Waited for time to match the worth of oxygen
Wasted away to hope and the purity of pestilence
And starved on the notion of lost relevance

Clung to the torture of repressed notions
And sank into the dialogue of wayward ghosts
The colleagues I'd left to hang for the wolves
Witnessed me on the hillside and the hunt began

And climb and fall and climb and fall
Fingers slowly peeling, I climb and fall
