I have shred this skin more than a million times,
To Seek for seas that run through my veins
All I can find is a drought
A whole desert of pain
A rose growing among the thorns
Resting at the belle of the desert,
I know all about the desert
I know all about tide of sorrows it brings
I have at one point swam against this tide
Losing my bones in the process
I am broken in bits
I am now a broken shell
A fragment of a whole
