"Bird Bone" lyrics

"Bird Bone"

Always starts with a trickle then begins to flow
If I make it out alive, the sickness, it's in my bones
I've been dwellin' in my head, made my bed, can't let go
My freshly lit cigarette calms me as the wind blows

Ground is frozen and time begins to slow
I can't help that I'm growing cold
I feel the sting of the trigger tryna blow me down
I never though you'd take the shot, now I'm on the ground

Leaves begin to whither
Everything bleeds together
And I'm hollow, yes, I'm hollow like a bird bone
Yeah, I'm hollow like a bird bone

From the corners of my vision come the fading black
Deep and dark, waiting to attack
Swallowing the fluttering light behind my eyes
The ability to hold my own weight has been compromised

Drooling and dripping
Irreversible and imprinting
And I'm hollow, yes, I'm hollow like a bird bone
