Leeched - Nothing Will Grow From The Rotten Ground lyrics



Tracks



01. Liquid

Embrace this liquid like you couldn't your children

02. Drifted Wood

Hunger, never relieved
Escape, the grip of belief
Sear the soft flesh of my mind
Draw the knife across teeth

Corroded words from your profits mouth
They will stain this water red
Drifting at the surface of this brine
Let me sink to the ocean's floor

03. Marrow

Chained, black iron bars
Deranged, septic, starved
Clawing, frantically at the wet stones

Bones crushed
Marrow leeched

Sewn into the ruined earth
Only to yield a famine
Nothing will grow
Grow from the rotten ground

04. Boar

You should put me to sleep
But you don't fucking want to
You should heal my tongue
But you don't fucking need to
I'll cover your face
I'll cover it with dirt

05. Slit

Bow down to the old ones tongue
Heed the words from Gods of old
Hung from rope and bled from the neck
You will obey my ashen rein

Scales spread from my hands
Engulfing my torso
I see you swim towards me
And break on the sand
Birthed in the wreckage, of colliding waves
Now let me join you, where there is only silt

06. Worthless

Deep
Vein
Poison
Flowing
Shards
Of glass
Embedded
In my skin

You must do this
Fuck me while I can still breathe

Your life is worthless
Your life is pathetic
