Bury Me Deep Beneath Your Skin

As you mindlessly splatter paint upon the canvas
Something beautiful reveals itself
Stand up straight with your chin aimed towards the sun

Fight for it, cherish it or let it fall apart & perish with it
Live it, breathe it, give it, believe it

We were not expecting you but you are always welcome
To believe in the make believe
The secrets hidden up your sleeve

Running uphill is a struggle but if you hold onto that which you're most ardent about the rewards will be eternal
I don't wield a blade & I don't play games

What if I had told you that night?
Would you ever have walked away?
What if I'd told you I was sorry?
To bury me deep beneath your skin

Time will tell what will become of me
All this time we've been searching for infinity
Choose your path, find your own affinity
And dig me out from beneath your skin
