lyrics

this song is about abuse and assault, ptsd, but it really just served as a way for me to vent and process my feelings in the moments that i felt hopeless.

***

garden's been turning gray
and i'm constantly afraid
i don't know where i've been
it's planted in me like a sin

the aftermath is a lot like lying
keep yourself together when you feel like dying

but i can't
not in the aftermath

you're bringing flowers to a funeral
you planned yourself but you don't plan to go
you gutted me like you caught a fish
still that's something i wish

if i could remove the parts you touched
you're right to say that i wouldn't be much
oh i'm glad that i rarely saw your face
every time you put me in my place

the aftermath is a lot like lying
keep yourself together when you feel like dying
the aftermath is a lot like screaming
you toss and turn pretending that your dreaming

but i can't
not in the aftermath
