Near the Water - Controlled Bleeding

Near the water

Cloak of fire

Breaks the bones

(Ripped inside)

On the water

By the fire

Crack the beast

Ripped inside

In the light

Timeless figures reappear

Cold grace

Sparks the aging

Life so empty

Weeping softly

Into lies

Staring down

Open casket

Ground and pallid

Into water

Near the fire

Body crumbling

Blood of ash

I’ll caress you

In the summer

Whole of love

Summer rainfall

Gas on water

Flayed in time
