knock me out
drag me down
settle in my skin.
claw your way through every vein
but i won't let your poison in.
bleed me out
break me down
infect my bones again.
i won't let you kill me now
i would never let you win.
even though you burn from where you rot inside me,
the places that you've touched
blackened bits of memories,
i'm finally flushing out.
you're a curable disease
and i'm not wasting time.
the antidote is on my tongue
it's built up from all the time i've come undone
now i'm immune to you.
