Dead girl breathing to the living over
Can’t you see?
I stand here before
Flesh falling before your eyes
Rot infecting my chest
Black congealing blood oozing down my arms
Greying skin
Patches of bone exposed
Festering stench clinging
Can’t you see?
I’m a dead girl breathing
You act like I’m alive
You act like I’m okay
Can’t you see?
But you don’t want to see it
The ugliness
The darkness
The truth
I’m a dead girl breathing
You see a girl smiling
You see a girl happy
Why can’t you see through it?
The façade
The mask
The lies
Part of me is silently crying out for you to know the truth
Part of me silently crying out for you to see it
I’m a dead girl breathing
Is anyone listening?
Dead girl breathing doesn’t want anyone to hear
Dead girl breathing doesn’t want anyone to see it
Dead girl breathing doesn't want anyone know
Dead girl breathing to the living over and out
