Everything Inside Me
I want you to walk into the mausoleum I want you to stumble upon the tomb I want you to look into the coffin And see the corpse that is now rotten Look inside of it and you will see Everything that once grew inside of me The nail polish chipped from fingertips Paint now faded from rotting skin I want you to see everything that grows The Moss coats my body Thorns constrict my throat I want it to finally click It was me that croaked I want you to be taking a back To the day where I died The day were you took my heart And left me a little dead inside That was the day I started to rot And I want you to come back to reality Look into my coffin and see what is left of me I want you to notice the Moss coating skin I want you to see the thorns hidden within Those made me choke I want you to finally realize the corpse in the coffin is me The coffin I am laying is my bed the tomb was actually once my room The mausoleum was once upon a time my house That was all before The day I died And then I rotted I want you to look inside my rib cage And notice how the flowers grow I want you to see Everything within me that grows
