Covenant

You can have the clothes off my back

or the last breath in my lungs

But instead you’ll strip me bare

leave me lying there

as you suck out all the air

You can share my family

but would you turn them all against me?

I’d give you my bed

the blood that I’ve shed and slip like Ophelia fears

Silently into her tears

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

bittersweet with doubt

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

rip this feeling out

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

bittersweet with doubt

I can still taste the blood in my mouth

You can have the clothes off my back

You can share my family
