Holocaust

Do you see me standing?

Do you see me standing here?

The sand pouring from my eyes and being swallowed by my tongue!
And now I'm choking and flies are swarming.

After the Holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
I am covered. Now.
They were born here, made from my mind.

Where will these flies go when I have nothing left to give?
When I have thought, these flies have been made.

So when my mind dies like my body; Where will they go?

After the holocaust bodies were covered in flies.

After my life...
Will I still be standing in lies?

After you...
Will I be on my back, still?
