common assumptions of risk (live) - maddie pieper lyrics

[verse]
what do you do when confronted with death?
if you woke up one second with it on your doorstep?
would you run would you scream would you plead would you beg?
would you stand there in silence or would you have wept?

[chorus]
oh my darling
oh my sunshine oh my love
won’t you take my battered bones and cover them up
oh sweetheart i’m exactly what you wanted to be at 13
now why the f*ck did you wish for this

[verse]
i always thought my death would be a blaze of glory
but you’re just there and then you’re not
in the rationality of the grey morning
look in scorn and regret
on the lonely pervasive part of you
you can’t ignore

[chorus]
oh my darling
oh my sunshine oh my love
won’t you take my battered bones and cover them up
oh sweetheart i’m exactly what you wanted to be at 13
now why the f*ck did you wish for this
[bridge]
kneel before me
ides of march, the judgment day
crawling through the mirage of heaven and h*ll’s gates
spending your whole little life
in a semi*fugue state
drenched in sickly sweet sweat so desperate
for feelings that evade
to put words to a meaning
that will constantly elude your chase

and then i stand in a cornfield
in the forest
in the street
the stench of petrichor
a pounding ceaseless litany
a sacrificial lamb
a martyr thrown at your feet
undeserving of the grace of death
nor the tears the devils weep

i do not receive the honor of being named
nor any ease
and i breathe in and breathe out
and wait for the release
