Covered by a thick...
Exoskeleton

Avoiding the light, to feel more secure
Digging a hole to gain all control
Ready to fight against all the odds
Fearless and calm awaits in the night

Out from the dark
Something has arrived
All exists blocked
You can't hide forever

Pretending I'm harmless, invisible to you
My body is burning to get close to you
Is what I'm looking for
To get close to you

Still coming at you - no matter what it takes

Cry my name tonight
And you will save your life
Absorb what's left in me
Rejoice this isn't the end

Somehow can't figure this out
Uncomfortable voices surround me day and night
My pulse goes down and my memory churns as my heart dies
No longer as strong as I used to be... I ask myself
Why is life so deceiving?
Why this shell is so heavy?
Why I can't see through your eyes?
Why this is happening to me?

My mouth is dry and the air becomes as heavy as my past
The air becomes as heavy as my past

Cry my name tonight
And you will save your life
Absorb what's left in me
Rejoice this isn't the end

    My Interpretation

    I think this about someone so infatuated with someone that it has driven them to point of complete exhaustion. Exhausted trying to break the shell of their obsession, in order to get to their core.
