burial - beloros lyrics

something’s buried
stitched beneath a bruising skin
i caught a doubt inside my glimpse
and held it till the feeling thinned
it builds, it fills—my hollow chest
until a threat is all that’s left
i long to see the blackest rose
you’ll lay at my casket step

something’s buried
like eyes of mourning wives
emotions running thicker
than the liquor by her side
she asks me with a bitter smile
and words that hung like oil lamps:
“tell me who you think i am
i’ll tell you who i haven’t been—”
i play pretend, i play it well
i set the scene; i hide my tells
i make believe, i make it best
i give my nights to dance with death
i grew, i grew, i grew and wilted
in one lonely breath

i speak again, i speak again
i speak that’s all that’s left
will it be worth the blackest rose
laid at my casket’s step?
something’s buried
stitched beneath a bruising skin
i caught a doubt inside my glimpse
and held it till the feeling thinned
it builds, it fills—my hollow chest
until a threat is all that’s left
i long to see the blackest rose
you’ll lay at my casket step

in cold, in lone
i hide in cloud
often awaiting something
often buried in the crowd
in the quiet moment
when the truth starts spilling out
i hadn’t thought to speak it then
so somewhere in, i’ll speak it now:

you are kept
you are whole
a locked door should not disturb you
it is safe now
you are safe now
no one’s here to hurt you
and still
i hold the blackest rose
and plant it in my virtues
believe me now
i want to care
it hurts to
it always hurts to
