You know the taste
You know the weight
Dirt under fingernails still
Taste of rust on morning teeth
You carved initials in concrete
But concrete swallows names
Swallows faces whole
Blood runs thick here
Thick as motor oil
Thick as shame that sticks
To everything you touch
Everything you tried to leave
Where you came from
Never lets you go
Where you came from
Burns beneath your skin
Twelve
Years
Old
Screaming at walls
Walls
Walls that don't answer
Walls that remember
Basement floods / cat dies / mom cries / dad lies
Basement floods / cat dies / mom cries / dad lies
Basement floods cat dies mom cries dad lies
Ah-tah-keh-lah-moh-seh
Guh-tah-neh-loh-vah-teh
You taste like that place
You smell like that air
Stale cigarettes and broken promises
I recognize the damage
I see the scars you hide
Where you came from
Never lets you go
Where you came from
Burns beneath your skin
Dirt under fingernails
Dirt in your lungs
Dirt in your heart
Dirt
Dirt
