Mercedes

The truth
I see it when I inhale your flower
I reason even though I'm stupid
I toughen up, even though it's soft inside

And it's true
You destroy pain gram by gram
Silencing that evil narrator
I light up, even if just for a moment

You burn me, I know
But this fire is sweet
You kill me, I know
And I go alone in this tunnel

Take me
Forever and everywhere
Undress me, drag me
Don't let go of my feet

Without you, I want to be unrecognizable
Without you, I have nothing to do here
Without you, I have nothing to do here

It's true
What good is a heart to me
If it beats with a rhythm in error
Your cadence is constant in my body

When I take
Your hand, I know there won't be direction
I'll get lost sitting on the couch
Even if my universe becomes small

You take me to Eden
If you take me to the summit
You urge me to fall
But you're also my cloud

Take me
Forever and everywhere
Undress me, drag me
Don't let go of my feet

Contemplate me, turn to see me
Don't be so cruel
Hurt me, feed me
Come, prick my skin

Come, prick my skin
Come, prick my skin

Without you, a when is a why
Without you, when I pray, I omit the amen
