I was drowning, I was drowning, but saved by thoughts of you, Arms wrapped tight arms with your mark, with the bruise where your arms lingered to hug away my wounds, And I notice how you keep me together when seasons don't match the weather; it's spring and yet I don't know what blooms in me. I'll think twice before i sacrifice my breath, you've taught me flowers can bloom out of the nicotine in my lungs, infact; the darkness can even be the soil.

I'll think twice before i sacrifice my breath, you've taught me flowers can bloom out of the nicotine in my lungs, infact; the darkness can even be the soil.
Alembic: anything that transforms, cleanses or purifies.
