Slowly I burn Breathe through the smoke Scorching my lungs Catch in my throat Hands closing in Tighten their grip Red always fades Fingerprints in my mind
Steaming water, pour over me Cleanse my wrongs Wash away the fear Burn away my shell
Cover it up, give it time Time heals all wounds, sure, As I relive my own Reopen, pop the stitches Some just wonβt go Maybe not yet Surely not today.
