Still Bleeding for You

Oh. Sunset bleeding down the shoreline. Petals in the sand like a

fault line. We don't say it, but we feel it crack.

Smile for the world. Pain in the backpack. Salt in my

lungs. Truth in my teeth. I don't pray much,

but I still believe. Every scar got a story to tell.

Every heaven got a hint of hell. We don't drown. We just learn

how to sink. Hold our breath on the edge of the brink. If this ends,

let it end in flames. Say my name like it still means pain.
