the lashing (ghost)

therein lies the question

what now is to be done?

keep hiding in the shadows

or go and face the burning son?

lay bare for the lashing

tie yourself up to the post

or fade away in shame

and in time become a ghost?

i've something to admit

it's right behind my lips

and i just can't hold it in

say it already

already

already now

everytime she comes around

i feel it in my chest

like a swarm of bees buzzing

with things i've left unsaid

and i know she might go running

if i open up my mouth

but i'm afraid that it might kill me

if i can't let it out

i've something to admit

it's right behind my lips

and i just can't hold it in

say it already already already now
