Deforest me lyrics

by

Meave Devereux


i had antlers in a past life ill charge at you with full speed
blasphemy will be the last lie you believe

with an ache so old with dignity
Christianity will disagree
with my ability to change so quickly
God is dead, so whos doing can this be?
heaven is crying acid
and its building the underworld beneath it
i spit acid and of course thr man bloody loves it

A man pressed my skin, complimented its softness, but it was rotting
with my injuries i pull out the bones and create a shelter for me
to hide from the winter rain, oh god is who i tend to blame
i drift between seasons at thе pace of the sun at its winer four
a symbol of еlongated storms
oh, the potential of a woman scorned
my body was just a church’s game
oh yet they wont let me use their name in vain
with this chameleon skin
ill lie and slither in
a contain multitudes, watch as i ripple through
do they know the truth? they cant lie to me, i know their secrecy
they hide bones, i am that body
when they burnt christ’s body they didn’t know who to believe
they point, blame and bleed
but i watch and proceed, i watch and see
with this holy thorn, ill untangle it and use it as a sword
with this hate ill forge warmth
you can try to scatter my bones
but ill forever map out a throne

within the garden of eden there are snakes breathing
i was a chameleon, but i thought was a human being
with the cards dealt, I blew the house down
with a grit in my teeth, a snake is what ill be
the havens watched me, as i lied and dangled fruit mercilessly
"what a wicked b*tch" God called me
they call me shallow as they fail to reach the bottom of me

They liked me better when i was starving, when my skin was stretched thin.
when they could dangle love and watch me crawl over, back when i was desperate for anything.
they loved me back when i was dead
back when i was a corpse that would do whatever they would of said.
they painted me a saint, expected me to pray but son, God is dead

rip me open,
with blood so thick youll lick it thin
discard the open bones
take exactly what you desire
without a mouth i cannot curse you out, you have no reason to fear the fire
tissue in your teeth
ill watch resentfully as u devour me
the hate builds in my heart like a clot
god loves you no he does not
with chameleon skin ill never know who i was truly meant to be
ill try to tear it off me but a new colour would appear quickly
like an ancient tree, i saw through the layers desperately
deforest me
deforest me
deforest me
who am i to the core
God told me he was not sure
f*ck him, what am i all for?
A jealous mind is envious of how calm the normal can be
set fire to thee, she’ll go out with grace and dignity
blasphemy is the last truth that’ll set you free
