Down

I could see the pain in your eyes,
I wish I could prove this truth absolute,
I want to heal you,
It is me,
I am sorry.

Sister of mercy to free me,
Trace my past beyond what I see,
Your God promised to save me,
God forgot.

Needle puncturing skin,
Tell the tales of where I have been,
Please love,
Trace my soul never to let my memory go.

Murder in every world,
There has got to be someone who understands me,
I was looking for myself,
Asking everyone except myself the questions,
Which I and only I could answer.

Reflections in the skin,
Release the flowing stream,
The agony we call living,
The bloodletting I call me,
I will never fall down.
