Lyrics
My buried child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
my frozen empty violent mind caressed
the hidden hair that shines
with liquid lust i left behind,your body stained with ruined
eyes, i cut the skin concealed the crimes with liquid hate i
left inside and loneliness is buried here in rotting holes
beneath your fear, your agony
your twisted struggle two bodies
sink in meat/blood strangled.
the smell of death, your tortured
gash, enfold me in your mother's arms,
now hold me in your mother's arms,
now hold me in your mother's arms
