Locust II (Last Moult) Lyrics by The Looms (NJ)

Ashes of the Old

2022

I've always said "I'll get to it tomorrow."
But this time I really mean it
I am the culmination of everything I've lost
And no amount of overtime can cover the cost
Shedding my skin, my doubts are next to follow
Petrified, but keep on breathing
I see the path before me, and turn the other way
Looking toward the future and it's glaring back at me
Old habits die to clear the way for new ones
And I'm trying to quit being my own villain
I was smoking a cigarette outside my house
When the rain it started, started pouring down
I'll blamе myself when it's said and done
But try as I might, I can't concеal my feelings
When the flames engulfed me I knew there was no going back
Now there's only ashes but it's the only choice I had
How have I not suffocated, took twenty-seven years to crawl out of a shell
Mentally fried from waiting to die but I'm beginning to break the spell
Nothing to believe, feel my body heave. Now is the time for the healing
I am the locust destructive and hopeless until the day I break out of my skin
One last moult
Breaking out of my skin, my last moult
