Breaking Slow

dark, moody, atmospheric, haunting, ominous

Lyrics

Intro

(creak... creak...)

Rain on the pane, black as my veins

Verse

Boots crunch the gravel, under moonless sky

Fingers like ice, gripping the knife

Memories rot, in the back of my mind

Smell of the damp, earth wants me blind

Crawl through the thorns, blood warms the ground

Voices in the walls, laughing without sound

Chorus

We're breaking, breaking slow

Bones snap in the undertow

Drown in the ink, let it flow

We're breaking, breaking low

No mercy, no glow

Just the dark, swallowing whole

Verse

Teeth in the fog, circling close

Skin peels away, like a ghost

Promises lied, turned to rust

Trust bled out, in the dust

Pound on the door, it's locked from inside

Mirror shows nothing, but the nothing I hide

Chorus

We're breaking, breaking slow

Bones snap in the undertow

Drown in the ink, let it flow

We're breaking, breaking low

No mercy, no glow

Just the dark, swallowing whole

(whole... whole...)

Bridge

(scratch... scratch...)

Feed it your fear, it grows teeth overnight

Chew through the light, spit out the fight

No savior comes, no holy rite

Just me and the void, holding tight

Chorus

We're breaking, breaking slow

Bones snap in the undertow

Drown in the ink, let it flow

We're breaking, breaking low

No mercy, no glow

Just the dark, swallowing whole

Swallowing whole

(whole... whole... gone)

Outro

(creak... fade...)

Rain on the pane

Black as my veins
