so tired of being f***ed
oh honey, not by you
I think you're the only
thing holding me together
reminding me of things
I believe
reminding me, yes
everything will pass

as the tidal wave hits
and pulls me under
that suffocating feeling
the pressure to breathe

and a handful of meds
thins the blood
keeps the heart pumping
and gives willing to live
to face the challenge
and overcome
the tire of earthlife

i lay within your tattoo arms
pull you close and know I'll forget
whatever it was I was lost in
