Hematopia - Otep

I don’t recognize my life

Who is this soul so weak and paralyzed

Cold claws raking up & down my spine

I’m never alone, but I’m lonely all the time

This is where it ends, within the empty dark

I’ll set myself aflame, resurrected

By the spark

I may be broken

But I won’t fall to pieces

Lonesome & corrosive

The weakness of your secrets

I won’t die like I’ve done many times before

I’m gonna run

From the wounds

Of war

When the moon casts shadows long across my wall

I’ll pretend they are my friends & I’ve known

Them all along

I’ll sit and pretend I’m not waiting on your call

When the phone finally rings

My courage will dissolve

And I will run to you

I will run right back to you
