I dug a hole and fell inside.
crept around the rooted sides
sifted through the earth until I found a new rebirth.
I climbed outside then dug again.
These holes I make just to fill in with cells and all my hidden skin.
This shedding, where it all begins.
This shedding is all tainted skin thats needs a place to rest,
in order to progress.
This worthlessness once trapped within falls into every hole I dig.
Falls into everything thing that I am trying to erase and so
I dig some more until I find the core from which I lie behind.
This core from which my self resides is hiding in this place which I thought I could erase.
I closed my eyes and dug again.
I'm blind until I look with in.
I dig until I grab a hold of roots that lead the way to all the truth that hides away.
I dig until I finally see.
i dig until I hear a plea above the world thats chained to me.
I dig until I lightened up the shadows that keep creeping up.
I dig and dig and dig until there is nothing left to see ;the shadows that are me.
I dug a hole and then fell in.
I dug a hole just to fall in.
I dug a hole again to find that person buried deep with in.
I dug a hole and fell inside.
crept around the rooted sides
sifted through the earth until i found a new rebirth..
