Taking each breath with a rope around the lifeline Blades infract the skin to produce relief in the world we call "fine" Her father abusive with every poisonous phrase Leaving the pile of bones left to sit in a desperate daze Leaving her lost in a cause that has yet to be found But perfectly imperfect compacted into a love seeking hound Searching for joy in anything left possible Left lying helpless in a joyous yet melancholy blood pool A figure appears Numb but feeling right She turned on the rusty switch to his light Intertwining into one mind Tearing off the chains and shackles of the once blind happiness now instilled once hopeless but the heart now filled every word spoken comes out with sincerity making it together, opening up their vulnerabilities
