I Nearly Lost Myself

from Melancholia by Dead Like Wolves

/

about

A song about people, I used a lot of homophones and polysemes in this so the listener can fuck with interpretation.

lyrics

I Nearly Lost Myself

I'll write a phrase to paralyse
For I'm the king of illiteracy
A twisted line thrown out to see
How slow they crawl the nullified
I held a light against
Transparency allows the dead to breathe
A means to justify
I comprehend
I'll be the end of me

I nearly lost myself
I don't know myself
Back in black
I'm wearing thin
I nearly lost myself
I don't know myself
Feel so haunted by your kin

I'll be your muse to analyse
I'll wear the blame upon my sleeve
A blinkered view with open eyes
Doth cast aspersions I am weak
I swallow down to numb the pain
No sense to feel, the dumb cant talk
Awake I lie, the truth will out
These blackened lungs to choked to talk
