This was one of those weird songs that seemed to pour out so quickly, your pen can't keep up. Why can't that happen every time!?!

i am an effigy begging to be burned i am hard won respect that you could never earn i am you in the dark of night when you're alone

i am the smell of burning plastic poisoning your lungs i am the monk so scholastic forgotten second son i am a gull soaring high and swooping through the air i am a spectre and i'm not really there

i am the spell of wicked witchcraft marking you as cursed i am the sad, sweet epitaph you couldn't rehearse i am the sky so black with cloud never to be fair i'm just a phantom and i'm not really there

i am an effigy destroy me by fire i am the evidence heaped upon the pyre i am you i'm your darkest fear when you're alone

i am an effigy but you won't remember me a severed identity i am a vulgar obscenity unavoidable necessity a moment of clarity i am an effigy
