Like oil on the water, you kept burning yourself
at your imaginary stake for someone who
was sad she'd ever brought you
into the world
Swimming desperately towards the surface
shackled only by a thousand scars
which you kept denying though
I told you they
made you
beautiful
Look to the heavens, I said, look
there soars the dragon
Come with me up
there, down here
inverted hell is just heaven
Like oil on the water, you kept sliding off my
grasp as I tried to become one with you
desperately fighting to bring
your heart into mine
Drowning over and over in your own shadow
while you clawed at my skin and bones
until I was bleeding all
over this dark ocean
now your
memory
Betrays everything we ever had, look
there soars the dragon
You're still afraid
upside, downside
inverted heaven is
just hell
