Seidiges Tier aus zerbrochenem Glas

Shhh… say, can you hear that sound?
That fear that’s growing, pound by pound
Chaining your wings down to the ground
Cause of your shivers though it’s just a noun

Or is it?

That word, gone silent
The name, torn unspoken
The fragrant scent of a rose burst in flames
Relentlessly pulling a beat out from your skin

Will you still deny me? (Dare you, for others have tried but no one did)

Close your eyes, tighten your fist, try hard to hide how you’re shaking
You won’t even move though you’re facing a beast
That cannot be named
That cannot be tamed
That feasts on your shame

And still, cold in fear as you are
You lend me your hand though you know
For your flesh I starve…
So be it

Augen auf, ich komme
