lyrics

as the bones disintegrate
the blood escapes the sleeping veins
a dog’s bark will reveal the place
where the pile of epidermis lays

the empty skin
flesh unlived-in
the empty skin
hollowed from within

hung upside down
and then gutted out
all that’s inside
spills to the ground
from that dangling hide
everything comes pouring out

a visit to the taxidermist
who wears intestines like a necklace
with a heart as a palpitating pendant
circulation cut off at the wrist

capillaries are exploding
the nerves are all abandoning
a thousand tongues could be licking
and it wouldn’t feel a single thing

went back to the taxidermist
who made a suit of leather from the skin
i tried it on and it was just the right fit
he said “this is what you needed now wasn’t it?”
