there is a way where there was no way before
improbable, a key left in a door
it is a way that i could not even taste
suddenly all my senses come awake

ch
mother, this is all i’ve ever wanted
and all that’s ever wanted me

it’s alien, it’s a crack into the ribs
like a machine but without the will to live
it is a thing for which i would truly die
if there’s a chance i could truly come alive

i will refuse life that i might have life
i will become life where there is none
i will refuse life that i might have life
i will become life where there is none

there is a way where there was no way before
