[Verse 1]
I am the ghost that died inside you
I am the breath of fetid wind
I am the loss that you're concealing
I am the one that's never sinned

[Verse 2]
I am the evil you have vanquised
I am the lust you have expelled
I am the poison feast you at as you were giving birth
And I am the tiny hand you held

[Verse 3]
I am the words you'd never utter
I am the curse that left your lips
I am the casual stare of unimagined dangers
I am the itching in your hips

[Verse 4]
I am the godforsaken fetus
I am the afterbirth of love
I am the stammering recipient of favors
I am below, you are above

[Verse 5]
I am the secret in your darkness
I am secreted from your pores
I am the cynicism screaming for attention
And I'm everything you'd like to think was yours

[Verse 6]
I am the ghost of just this moment
I am the ghost of all your past
I am the ghost who'll haunt each fragment of your future
I am the first, I am the last
