if you'd rip my skin off
Underneath it'd say
Thank you for loving me
As I'm bleeding under your hands
It's all you can see
Just "thank you for loving me"
Your touch cuts me
like a hard punch from a kings fist
Diamonds split my lips
And I still strangle out the syllables
Thank you for loving me
Your love was a seed I planted in my skin
And it grew into dandelions
In my eyes their yellow brilliance couldn't compare
But my friends screamed that they were nothing but weeds
Barbs on leaves hooking me
Sinking me deeper
For your smile I'd resurface
To say
Thank you
For loving me
