She's draped across the bathtub Or lying on the floor So cold her pale white skin Ill touch her to be sure Blind redemption The words were draped in broken embers Regret is all that I have I can't seem to sleep Without her face The lines under my eyes Foretell my sleepless nights Why am I holding on? Denial of frail wrists The words were draped in broken embers Regret is all that I have I need you to paint this portrait in my mind To take away my pain ...and she's pure and silent Crawl back into the womb Premortal emancipation The scars ripped across her neck Mimic the holes of trephination Throw her back The words were draped in broken embers Regret is all that I have I need you to paint this portrait
