PORTRAIT
|
|
Shes draped across the bathtub
|
Or lying on the floor
|
So cold her pale white skin
|
Ill touch her to be sure
|
Blind redemption
|
|
The words were draped in broken embers
|
Regret is all that i have
|
|
I can't seem to sleep
|
Without her face
|
The lines under my eyes
|
Fortell my sleepless nights
|
Why am I holding on?
|
Denial of frail wrists
|
|
The words were draped in broken embers
|
Regret is all that i have
|
I need you to paint this portrait in my mind
|
To take away my pain
|
|
...and shes pure and silent
|
|
Crawl back into the womb
|
Premortal emancipation
|
The scars ripped across her neck
|
Mimic the holes of trephination
|
Throw her back
|
|
The words were draped in broken embers
|
Regret is all that i have
|
I need you to paint this portrait in my mind
|
To take away my pain
|
