I can pinpoint the second everything fell apart
The heel of Death against my chest, clocks never healed these scars
Shapeshifter's hands heave this pen across the page
Spitting ink-dipped prayers
Keep me sheltered from the rain
Dear God, keep me sheltered from the rain

Day in day out, keep me tired keep me sick
I'm not a man to be admired, nothing you can fix

Trace your fingers down the cracks in my figure
Drain the blood from my veins, break my bones ever-bitter because I
I've felt the burn in my throat, torn at by choke-holding ropes
And now these coffins are all that I know

Singing in harmony with choirs of the dead
Ballads of breathlessness and all the ghosts in my head
There are ghosts in my head
There are ghosts in my head
Can you hear them?
I can hear them sing
Coffinbound

I feel their teeth tear my heart into pieces
These apparitions keep me hanging
When they stop whispering, I have nothing
These apparitions keep me hanging on
Singing in harmony with choirs of the dead
Ballads of breathlessness and all the ghosts in my head
Can you hear them?
I can hear them sing
