From the Flesh, to the Pulp

from Chiaroscuro by A Flower in Disguise

lyrics

Thralled by the height
I look but see nothing

How far will you fall?
How far will you fall?
From the flesh, to pulp, the hard pit, osmosis
Cracked my teeth when I bit it
Give me all that is hidden
The leaves are barely hanging on

Sticky, sticky, like ripping a heart out of the living
We share blood now, both dripping
Sinking into the mud

I’ve bitten for the bruise
From the flesh, to pulp, the hard pit
The despair, jaw breaking
Too soft to hold together
Where do we come from?
I look but see nothing

To share, not to cater
Sparing you the discomfort
Too soft to hold together
Turned by the heat to rot in my hands
The bugs have always been drawn to me
I root through the pit of earth, to the heart, despair

Poison apples arsenic sweet, sick peaches, blackened plums
The worms were quick and discreet before me
I know the worst before it gets to me

How far will you fall?
How far will you fall?
From the flesh, to pulp, the hard pit, osmosis
Cracked my teeth when I bit it
Give me all that is hidden
The leaves are barely hanging on

Sticky, sticky, like ripping a heart out of the living
We share blood now, both dripping
Sinking into the mud

Too soft to hold together
Turned by the heat to rot in my hands
The bugs have always been drawn to me
I root through the pit of earth, to the heart, despair

Poison apples arsenic sweet, sick peaches, blackened plums
The worms were quick and discreet before me
I know the worst before it gets to me
