Soapy water
I am like a sink full of soapy water.
Bubbly, happy, and clean...
On the outside, at least.
Dip your hand in, you'll find that I'm still
Warm, relatively clean until...
You slice your hand on the knife hidden just underneath those shiny bubbles
I'm sorry if I hurt you,
But you shouldn't stick your hand into soapy water
If you aren't prepared to deal with the damage
And when you cut your hand in my sink, it bleeds into me, and changes everything.
