Wolfe, Chelsea - They'll Clap When You're Gone Lyrics

Enchantress

"I can feel the walls closing in
and I don’t want to talk anymore
wish I could quietly slip away
and leave you here with no void
the only reason I stay is to care for you
everything else in me has atrophied
and I am cold and painless now
I want to live but I feel nothing
when can I die, when can I go
when will I be free, when will I know
when can I run – my legs are bound
when can I go, when can I go

was born a blackened seed in the wild
and I never was a child
I was pulled right out of the sea
and the salt – it never left my body
someone opened me up while I was sleeping
and filled my body right up with sand
I carry a heaviness like a mountain
it forces me to remain
alive and ugly, alive and ugly
alive and ugly, alive and ugly

when can I die, when can I go
when will I be free, when will I know
when can I run, my legs are bound
can I leave here, knowing you’ll be strong without me

they’ll clap when you die
they’ll love you when you’re dead
and they’ll understand
and you’ll be forgiven then
"

Resifreak thank you 🖤💔🖤

Jewel box of sadness ring to catch your tears, crystallized illusions that shine forgotten I was ever here.

Oh dreamer, I love you so, I’ll never let go of your hand.

1 of my favorite songs of hers. So much emotion and depth. I'll always love this
