lyrics

and you can't get rid of this and survive
you cannot hold this in and still remain alive
the need to eliminate what's looming
fate
the courage to speak and elaborate
what you love
what you hate
turning your insides out
showing what the flesh hides on the other side
what inhibition or fear hides
what's within you glowing and incredible
and more than unique
needs to be told
bleeds to be bold
out your eyes
off your lips
into our ears
and into our lives
how ever long it takes to reach each other's shores
