lyrics

when you died i heard the cries in the night of your soul leaving the deformed flesh that shamed your mind, all of those years your bones wept, but now there is no skin left, the worms have eaten it you’re free to go

and i will take your bones and with them build a home

burdened at birth inside of a face no mother could love, she let them shame you like animal, they broke your limbs and beat in your swollen head til your neck shattered to pieces they put in the ground

and i will take your bones and with them build a home

gooble gobble gooble gobble, we accept you, we accept you, one of us, gooble gobble gooble gobble, we accept you, we accept you, one of us, gooble gobble gooble gobble, we accept you, we accept you, one of us

i hear your soft bones crying, i hear your soft bones crying, i hear your soft bones crying in the night
