FRACTURED STONE Lyrics

Now you must begin rebuilding

That which you have destroyed

Whetstone, sharpen my bones

I looked for home, now i just roam

Whetstone, sharpen my bones

I looked for home, now i just roam

I will lay the bricks and i will build the bridge

Our valley flooded with debris from the ridge

We smile brief, it hurts when your lips are ripped

I can build us shelter but not a place to live

If i was beautiful then i could build a palace

A place for us to laugh and live inside a facet ballad

But the face that i was birthed, is a piece they can't appraise

I'll mutilate my face until it's something they will praise

Abstract faces

Always seem to be alone

So i carve my beauty with fractured stone

Fractured

Fractured

Always seem to be alone

So i carve my beauty with fractured stone

The husk is gorgeous, but hidden by the vines

Sit inside the pines, when it glisten it's divine

Wish i ain't need make up to give the world that you deserve

But what's left after our plastic palace burns?

Will you still love me after my face been shattered?

I've ruptured my face's curve so it would fucking matter

If i do not look like them, there's no reason i should try

Who comforts the ugly when they cry

Recently, i picked up weight but i know how to hide it

I know that time fracture value, don't know how to fight it

Seen them sacrifice identity for safety

The smile i was birthed, really ain't enough to save me

So how the fuck can i save you, how the fuck can i take you

Away from misery, the cycles, all that we escape to

To see my smile in a palace, forced to just deform it

Now there's nothing left of all the beauty i was fucking born with

Abstract faces

Always seem to be alone

So i carved my beauty with fractured stone

Fractured

Fractured

Always seem to be alone

So i carved my beauty with fractured stone

When one struggles to feel safe in their own skin

Where may they find solace?

If not home, where are kids meant to feel safe?
