pick a place where no one sees you hide away where shadows crawl underneath the skin he feeds you curled up in a little ball wonder where the fine line enters wonder where the seam unfolds you are not the soothing mender you are lamb and you are foal i step unto the precipice the waves have only grown i look upon my arm and see them along your scars that line my own curiosity holds me by the neck, she bites and gnashes on my bone, if i pick at the scab that you left, will i finally be whole?

scab
pick a place where no one sees you hide away where shadows crawl underneath the skin he feeds you curled up in a little ball wonder where the fine line enters wonder where the seam unfolds you are not the soothing mender you are lamb and you are foal i step unto the precipice the waves have only grown i look upon my arm and see them along your scars that line my own curiosity holds me by the neck, she bites and gnashes on my bone, if i pick at the scab that you left, will i finally be whole?
