You drank forgiveness
Spitting skin under your bed
In the cracks where no one sees
Lifting your arms, curling your toes only when no one sees

But your heart slows down and your hands dry off
You bite into his skin
You don’t know anything about sacrifice

All those times you’ve been let down
All those times you let me down

You reach for relief through the dirt
In the back of your throat
You breathe in and sigh
The air is hot under the blanket in your mind

All those times you let me down.
All this time you’ve been let down.

Nothing on this Earth ever going to change
It all balances out, it all just stays the same
Numbers on your skin don't change what you are
Words are names of what you used to know
Pictures hanging on the wall of your heart.
