lyrics

There's a cocoon I've built from a web of guilt, I'm both the spider and the fly. What's ensuing will consume me, it's only a matter of time.

Chorus:
'Cause here I'm comfortably strangled, securely entangled, safely tucked away from hope and harm. Though rapping at my door could be all I've ever hoped for. Do I take the chance or just sound the alarm?

This shell of an old self don't fit me like it did, and I'm itching to get out of it. But when the unknown's calling, this home is calming. It's familiar, undemanding, mine.

Chorus

Oh, my truth and my bluff are in a fisticuffs. And when my fear's at ease, my soul don't get no reprieve. Fair hits with bare fists, it's dirty and scrappy and quick. When it's good for growth, my comfort takes another blow.

I'm writhing in a self-made agony coughing up the blood of my enemy.

Chorus
