Bleeding beneath, breathe like a victim so discretely
Pour my adoring heart before your feet, lean
and listen like a chasm with an emptiness to fill but
know no abyss is limitless enough to hold the blood I spill
[when will one more pass or be the
last to fast and drink my poison
when will one be unafraid to wade
where all the bitter blood has run]
Inside my brain into my veins
there comes a pain no Novocaine
could be the bane of, crimson stains
would still remain and leave me drained
Shed me the tears I've sought
so I can shed my fears and stay, then
shed me off like skin that I would rot
while, terrified, you run away
Try me on for size
surprise
I do not even fit
Look right through my lies
my eyes
And tell me I am full of it
When I tell you I am bleeding
just for you.
Riddle me this just to call me a "liar"
Tie me up like a witch and set the ropes on fire.
near my death my dying breath will tell you something true
love can be a life long luster
or just as simply rust and kill you
[when will one more finally be last
to fast and drink my poison
when will one be unafraid to wade
through bitter blood again]
