Jaws of Life

The crow inside your hollow chest
It calls for me it calls for me
It sings the song of emptiness
To her I say
There's nothing more to do
The die is cast
And now you must receive it
And if there's one thing I know is true
All that's left is learning to believe it
'Cause nothing changes the direction that time flows
A dying rose a metaphor
Just walk away just walk away
You know we've both been here before
And just like then
There's nothing you can do
The bones are thrown
And nothing's going to save it
And all we thought we knew
Is now a ball and chain
So let's just leave it
'Cause nothing ever really goes backwards
A broken heart makes broken legs
You're seeing red you're seeing red
Your empty hands will find their necks
So keep them filled avoid regrets
When all you see is suffering
It's time for you to find your bed
When all is dark and all is bled
Pack your bags and leave your head
The jaws of life will splay your chest
And let out all the emptiness
And you will finally know the rest
That only comes
When all that's left to do
Is say the words you've always sworn you wouldn't
And this I swear is true
There's no more reason for you to avoid it
Yeah let's build another pyre and burn this
