Ease my weary mind Sedated by your decline Oh, drown my tired eyes Thirsty for loss of light Clay in my brain Flower bed your bouquet Mirror in the way My own face or yours its all the same When this wasteland falls When this sky caves in Hold onto my hands cold from the time we've spent When my dreams collapse and my heart caves in Staple pieces up from the shape I'm in When my skin unwraps and my frame falls in Suture my nerves up from the shape I'm in Form the shape I'm in

PLAGUE 03:24
This awful place where angels break The foulest dreams we set ablaze Where is your shape? Shiver in new ways The saddest scenes The wasted days This awful place This constant plague We'll starve the shade My light in chains Every second's like a dream I'm entangled in So I'm reaching, waiting for the end you softly said If we were intertwined then you could read me at a glance But it wasn't enough to kill half to become a twin Never mind, never found the light Time to overwrite Thousand years ago, fused together like a kernalsprite Never fine, never right, always fight or flight Sick in body, sick in mind One eye open with a knife This pure decay has taken shape I watch myself waste through my days Where is my shape Its fallen away I watch myself waste through my days This awful place This constant plague We'll starve the shade My light in chains My light in chains

Lamb 06:47
I know you're frustrated And you know i can't take this Live prey just fated Torn apart at the skin Will it resonate And reflect in your head when my voice starts to break Watch me suffocate Never mind what I said, just prepare to amputate it Dug a shallow grave for the sleepwalker that you sent to sea Slip and score their clay They were always awake, you don't know anything, no We kissed with an absent face Deep water I'm disengaged Every day's the same Fuck your help I don't care you're well meaning I'll blindly wait While the bluest flames set my church ablaze You'll have to carry that weight Sedatives aside all your words are serrated And i know you're frustrated And you know i can't take this Live prey just fated Torn apart at the skin Did I always mean just to end up this way Just to be a machine While my wires bleed Prostrate to God, yeah I know I'm unclean Never heard you sing Your cadence is warm but my ears fell deaf And you'll hold your breath Secrets you'll compress to yourself to the end

I never ever wake up Lips inverse Don't speak the lingo Since we're never taken care of Poison angels swim with minnows Guess i thought I'd only die once Cyclic action change on impulse Convulse while my blood just boils Burn my fields and dry my soil Guess there's one thing that doesn't change I'll change and always feel the same So i guess I'll tell the truth that I love myself and truly hate you Guess there's one thing that doesn't change I'll change and always feel the same So i guess I'll tell the truth that I love myself and truly hate you Well I'd always love to say what's gnawing at my corpse still walking I was raised to stop my crying, shut my mouth and stick to fawning Guess there's no point in mourning stolen past Its just exhausting For now I'll stick to longing Never found sense of belonging Its like an ache that doesn't fade Stapling sutures to my fake face Warped by focal points and agitated disappointment Guess there's one thing that doesn't change I'll change and always feel the same So i guess I'll tell the truth that i love myself and truly hate you When I feel my wings are growing choral psalms blossom around me Shining and never showing demons cutting at my heartstrings Every year i wait for winter Mushroom clouds freeze onto concrete I'll stare back through the mirror apprehensive due to repeats

I am falling rain Evaporate my affirmations Ever glitching animations Never feel the same Feigning like an imitation Incubate the face for me to wear Film negatives Preview images Obfuscate the differences Filter all the blemishes Mainline sedatives Pressure crevices Crashing into 2d space Face the shape my pencil traced Always hurts the same Abstaining from new information Flayed by roaming infohazards Cel lines fade away Surgery on paper dolls The doctors call down hospital halls Constrained by pen and paper Transient like water vapor Trapped in frames inside your pocket

Murrumur: Wish you could stay in the view where i could see your face The saddest days bring the greyest haze A miasma of decay and isolation But I'll remember you in august When you broke all of your promises Can't you just be honest and remember that you caused this Like a rabbit in a top hat You'll consume me like a product on a stage in your pockets Just a profit to deposit in your bank Zumtru: I don't wanna be forgotten I don't want to give you thanks One more nail in my coffin Lift me up cause i can't stand Its all the same Stitch me up and I'll be ok Your friends will look at me a different way Look in the mirror so you'll see me lost and isolated underground And every moment I'll see your face You lift me up in the worst of ways Pretty soon you'll be lost and isolated underground Murrumur & Zumtru: I'll remember you in august When you broke all of your promises Can't you just be honest and remember that you caused this Like a rabbit in a top hat You'll consume me like a product on a stage in your pockets Just a profit to deposit in your bank When you love me is when I love me Tear me into pieces til I'm lovely Tell it to me bluntly You can crush me Reconstruct me Reconstruct me

Vessel Pilot 04:01
Warmth keep me company We share a face all the same It hurts to breathe, screaming with ghosts in machines I'll be precise fluorescent lights take me away to another place There's no embrace in this state In blurs I'll drive for days My vessel dictates my shape It's ok to forget my name cause i hate my form and my face Silent scream Forget my voice and yours rings out in its place Self destructing screens flicker in noise yet don't break Digital life exists in spite of that Encrypted names, miserable space cold to the touch
10.
Hivemind control my time Cut my nerves down the phone lines Shivers run through my mind As I forget all my words Hivemind control my time Cut my nerves down the phone lines Sigils roll down my spine As I forget all my words At the end of my bed Carve up my chest Time comes to dissect Corporeal memory falls from my head
11.
Murrumur: I think I've hit another point Where I'm not sure what i am Threads don't start then never end, never end My room is splattered with pastel blood And photos of the dead And dead ends from the hair that I've kept Tethers mend Patchwork friends with empty sigils in their names Find a vein and draw their blood Lost in language all the same All the same 8485: Hello please Legacy recall Crawl my backup files Facial scan, halfway smile Sudden face, sudden glance Camera flashes back again I watch the change reanimate itself A frame a day and forget where it ends I came back wrong,i wake up then Missing now, shrouded thieving lore From my unselves’ unfriends unsuspected nonetheless Covering up my unclean hands Body 40 below Time frozen and cold As it would be, as it should As above, so it goes Body left, representing innocence even in death Tore my tongue and went ahead From the last back to the next The threshold gets your fingers wet Murrumur: Cancer’s sixes as Gemini's twins eat themselves like a snake All my skin, all my limbs tear and screech like violin strings Venus splits me into halves, into thirds, into fourths Initiate second phase, second gate from the source Coincidence, 108 Is there more to this fate Hallucinate fragmentation Replication of my frame Let me out of this case Vessel’s sick, no escape But if i cut myself away I'm not worth shit And I’ll still age In the mirror someone’s face What was i called anyway? Different places, different names Different masks, different tape Navigate through my maze Labyrinth, stew in hate Centipede made of threads Every leg carries death out to the places that I’d fear to tread Not sure it’d ever end Let it end I’m shreds Dead again and again And again
12.
When you finish with severing my head sever my hands Wasting moments desperately on sycophantic breath Does it please you to be just like you? And when you’re gone my tendencies are worthless to the core Staring so blankly Wouldn't notice if i sank right through the floors And it happens again and again and again and again and again Every hole in my clothes Every hole in my skin Drawing up a curtain Whats a life? Never sure Whats to be afraid of? Not much to decay from Plague will still portray us Never fine, never pure Could still go lower Learning i can loathe your disruption to my boredom Never thrive, never cured Devoted to corroding every word I’ve spoken Stew in what was stolen Never mine, never yours I'm not dead but it always feels like the same thing Unraveled completely I feel I'm not a lot like me I wish i felt secure in being you And be with you, just you
13.
Tell me its over already Ending so suddenly Cracking from the way you kept me splitting open I'm all empty Hiding I'm tired from this fighting This awful fucking feeling that always eats at me I think everything went bad at 19 Confined in empty spaces lying unseen This endless inbetween This endless inbetween This endless inbetween Abruptly my memories are fading In cycles they all leave me The lovely leaves are always falling I wish I could sleep forever Vanish from further springs Seasons will still change in absence of the doll that I inhabit I wish I could sleep forever Flying over the sea Halo withered and weathered Do angels live forever? Do angels live forever? Do angels live forever? Do angels live forever? Do angels live forever? Nothing can stop the reality that I'll never be praised for nothing when I don't try But there's not enough of me to try left I'm absent, gone missing into fragments Just empty space on canvas Done combating this fact

PRESENTED BY DOLLHAVEN

SEWING UP THEIR SKIN :: AN ALBUM BY MURRUMUR


Aliases, Identities, Pseudonyms: An auditory representation of a digitized psyche, ripped apart and stitched together, creates a distinct manifestation. For better or worse, in health and sickness, forever peeling back layers to return to something pure. Wires transmit blood. Wires transmit signals. If I sever the power, will those wires bleed as well? And upon reconnection, will my own bleeding cease? As I present myself to all of you—a husk, a gutted representation of what I once was, what I will become, and what I used to be—carry my expression, my essence, and my identity through these wires. Both authentic and artificial, traversing the programmed wastelands that once hosted life and individuality.
