"Ravaging"
this crimson undertow
rules of the tide
this heart so hollow
void dark as night
wounds don't heal with time
this longing will only numb
words aren't worth a dime
just pile up in the scum
this tangled fist of lies
tools of the trade
these swollen black eyes
every color fades
hearts aren't bullet proof
pain will fill in the holes
slips through a cracked roof
breaks through shoe soles
