stare into my eyes rake your nails across my skin i know the reason embers of you scatter as you breathe the life you knew disappears in it s wake with one skin as paper i cut your life follow the outline that you traced the life you knew disappears in it s wake you stand with one skin that you do not own the sky is closed today so here i sit waiting for a word that is hidden in clouds to take me back from here somewhere take me back to a place i will not feel as you somewhere anywhere far away from the outline of you
