Oh Comely



The song is a heartbreak, a melody of suffering
Personally experienced pain

Reaching, unattainable, indescribable
A slippery fall with scratches at every turn

Pushing beyond its own limits, and yours
Pulling into all directions
Falling down but its not a pillow

Uncomfortable

You know it because it's bellowed

Fingers dripping blood into oblivion

Heartbeat

A cry of the most wretched soul imaginable

More pain than any human body should hold
More expression than any human instrument can convey
More tears than exist in your bloodstream
More dissonance than is expected from such simplicity
More pain than any human body can know
More confusion than all the enemies put together
More loneliness than all the strangers put together
