Death as My Witness Lyrics by Old Wharf

Matricide

2021

This reckoning that haunts me has no place for the weak
These little snippets of death, oh how I crave release
Just for that moment of bliss
Where I don’t have to feel like this
Suffocating inside of this shell
Death sing me your symphony
My skin crawls to let me know that I am still alive
This tainted state of mind just beats me down every time
Black my eyes and make me bleed from the inside out
Lay my body in a casket built from fear and doubt
I am the voice in your head that is filled with regret
I will keep eating away until nothing is left
You'll see I can't be alone with these thoughts in my head
I can't keep breathing and sinking inside of this dread
I rest in the darkest of place
As I become one with embrace
Dissolve this pain that surrounds me
So I can’t be me anymore
I lose myself when this misery takes me
Pulled away from everyone I love and need
Is it my time to plant the seed
Or live life on my knees?
Too late to ask for forgiveness
Will death be my witness?
So as I cease to breathe
The flies begin to lick their lips
Stuck in this breeding ground of filth
I pray for you to take me
Take me away from this place that knows nothing kind
