An Apparition

Forgive me for all I am not
 While my carcass swings by intersecting walls
 Born above a breeding ground filled with disease
 I will no longer carry your cross for I can hardly hold my own
 Pulling splinters from an ever-changing face
 I'm terrified of me
 ♪
 Kicking and screaming as I fall back to the earth
 By my own hands and not divine appendages
 Birds of paradise swarming isolated skies
 Searching for signs of life to quench their thirst
 I'm terrified of me
 ♪
 I will no longer carry your cross
 For I can hardly hold my own
 I'm terrified of me
 ♪
 I am an apparition, before I'm even gone
 I am an apparition, before I'm even gone
 God-guided razors at my wrist
 Forgive me for all I am not
