I’ve carved you into my flesh
Oh, what beautiful scars
And corners for you I’ve undressed
In a forgotten room I call my heart

I bathed myself in the thoughts of you
Till I was drowned in love
But as I sank to your seabed
I was tossed above -

Back into my naked corners
To be forgotten like my heart
Such shame I feel in my flesh now -
As I retrace the start

So I closed my drunken eyes shut
In attempt to re-dress my soul
But in truth, it felt useless
For once I was naked, and still am after all
Sincerely, Em
Sincerely Em
