Open Wounds

These words I've spoken,
Open wounds that will not heal
Every I love you,
a hurdle over my heart
Sweet and sincere,
but followed by a mouthful of soap

These riptides burn,
So I tried to drown my own destruction-
Sent this tiger to the ocean
But goodness-
Leash, condemned to my wrist
The waves pull me with it

[Cue the instrumental music]
I'm still waiting to arise.
