lyrics

O! There's no rebirth
Not for the salt of the earth
Not for the salt of the earth
Imprisoned, yes, and awaiting the grave
Enslaved by she who rigged the game

We return
To her arms
The cracker of bones
The Skeletrix!

Skeletrix:
You will return to me one day
The flesh you wear is just a mask
When your charade of life is over
I will have your bones again

Our flesh inert
Return to earth
A grisly homecoming

Her grin never fades
Back to her hearth we return
There to be unmade
Unwoven mind and bone

Skeletrix!

Thus we imagine
Romanticise our end
A return to a lover, the arms of a friend
But there is nothing beyond or below
No spurned goddess, no peace to bestow

O Skeletrix, I wish you could exist
