Rituals

Lulled by safety
Lured into these acts
Caught and suffocated but refusing to expand from that
Passionate
Seared into the past
Unavoidable, laid bare to caution
There is no forgiveness here
You’ll find it’s not all what it seems
So pinch to feel the pain
Clawing for a sweet escape
Until I feel again
You’ll find it’s not all what it seems
So pinch to feel the pain
Blessed to feel the sweet escape
Until I fall again
One waste to cause wreckage
Nothing can restore
But will I ever overcome
All that has gone before?
You’ll find it’s not all what it seems
So pinch to feel the pain
Clawing for a sweet escape
Until I feel again
You’ll find it’s not all what it seems
So pinch to feel the pain
Blessed to feel the sweet escape
Until I’m born again
