The Mara Effect, Pt.2

(album: Spiritbox - 2017)

Teeth in crumbs
Like sand in my mouth
Four little fingers keep pulling them out
Four little hands, they keep pulling me
Pulling me down
I try to grin
I try to scream
Please say anything
The frequencies ringing it out

Where is love?
Are you ordinary
With me now?
Meet me down
In the mud
I will call on you
When there's nothing left to say
Soon the hour will come
Look over your shoulder
There's no need to run anymore, anymore

I know I'm easily affected
Her arms are like a serpent spinning me around
Can she see?
Lights go out
When there is nothing left to say
Soon the hour will come
Look over your shoulder
There's no need to run anymore, anymore

Mirror me
I'm down here in the mud
This is ordinary in my suffering
There's no cheaper thrill
It's malevolent
Can't go unaffected
Oh, sing to me
Something sweet
Threatening
You cling to me, blood of ophidian
Until me
Help me
I'm crippling
You won't sacrifice my love
Meet me down in the mud
