heartbreak brings out the best in me eloquent words bleeding onto crumbled pages lost from the light
the majority of my veins is weighed down by red wine violet-stained lips like i've been ******* blood give us this day our daily bread instead, i've been ******* souls from those i love
forgive me, father, for i have sinned buried among too many sheets intoxication boiling just beneath the surface making friends with all my scars
i really need to stop giving excuses for you your righteousness carving silver secrets into the plains of my hips let me shed my secret ripe skin stretched taut against bone bleeds the easiest hurts the most
at least i have something to remember you by defensive wounds meant for your heart flaying myself for your wrongdoings
i see in lilac sunsets eternally it is i who stands the sinner as the sun of the day plunges me into the familiar ache of moonlight i repent punish myself 12 silver, sacred Hail Mary's shedding blood as a sacrificial apology and a new day starts, an indigo dawn but i don't have enough blood for the both of us
