Her Bones Remember

As the floor of her childhood bedroom whispers in her ear

Miles away from everything that had made her her

And so close to everything she thought she wished for

Black lagoons for eyes

While her meat suit carries her around

There's no one home

Not one soul to claim these bones

And my mother

She whispers in my sleep

Everything she didn't want to be

And my grandma

She screams with her smile

In her eyes everything that wasn't right

They took my bones and knit them

(Their cries in my voice)

And they took my arms as bridges

(Our skin is peeling off)

They took them and mistook them for a mirror

(Their cries in my voice)

(I feel our skin peeling off)

(They took them and mistook them for)

(My skin is peeling off)

I know all the lines

But they're trapped

In my mouth

Full of moths

There's a fine line that blends me into them

A fine line of extremes

Pulling all of my threads

Black lagoons for eyes

While her meat suit carries her around

There's no one home

Not one soul to claim this bones
