Alexithymia Lyrics

There's someone inside me that softly kills everyone around

They don't know they're dead to me 'cause intent never makes a sound

All along, they found us strangled, lovers have learned from slower hands

With these eleven minutes, I could teach you what I am



You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide



There's a knot of seclusion, production and depression

If a stranger turns up missing, this song is my confession

Tell the tales of the trail of dead, lovers learn from slower hands

Losing self in myself, inner demons make demands



You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide



You're suffocating me, so very hard to breathe

My mask is growing heavy but I've forgotten who's beneath



You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide

You're sick, sick as all the secrets that you deny

Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
