To Be Your One And Only (Inked In Blood)

Timeless, pensive, forever. I cannot look you in the eyes and my words, choked back. My message frayed, my songs unsung. Watching my hopes gather dust I am left downcast; the consequence of my cowardice. I swim like mad, lost at sea, a satellite breathing underwater. Have you come to save me? Your innocence is all I have that isn't blasphemy; a memory waiting to fade. My hopes cannot be explained without showing you my scars. What looks like fermented pain has a love aftertaste. We can't put this to rest. This affects everything. My sins are as a yoke bound to my neck. I am a man who has been afflicted. My eyes are spent with weeping, the perfection of beauty has stricken me. You must not suffer my intent, your sympathy resounds like a farewell. My hopes cannot be explained without showing you my scars. What looks like fermented pain has a love aftertaste. To be your one and only, I'd sever ties to life
