Liver and Lungs - Landmine Marathon

Pale with envy and in throne

Blood boils between each cheek

Turning time and life two ends will meet

Mirrors and men trade life for a lie

A black frame surrounds her face

Yielding her fair barren skin

Once again she weeps

And once again he shows

Her naked body lying in the earth

The hunter’s kill is innocent

Lungs and liver are removed

This slender body is vacant

But still with a beating heart

Having blood lust and dagger’s hands

Casts him to the end of time

Then he shows her how to die

Left barren inside the earth

He whispers one last time

Leaving in her mind

You are less than you

Have ever been and will never be

Dying awake slows only heart’s hammer

Each cut unlike any other

Easy to take each dagger’s hand

And sever deep into the snow

Melting into her bones

What was once a hunter’s prey

Now resides inside himself

Brawn grip will not release her

For sovereign mother sets tables

Too long for just one feast
