Emerald

Like ink in your skin
A lasting stain from history
Permanently imprinted between my DNA

Like ink in your skin
Permanently imprinted between my DNA
Like ink in your skin
A self-inflicted exhibition of memory
A promise to self
To obfuscate the crushing weight

We forget the pain but the meaning remains, only removed as a last resort
To leave behind scars, a reminiscence of what we are when we're torn from what we fought for
Forever entwined in my being, something worth living with
And though the black fades to emerald, the meaning refuses to decay

For better or worse, an eternal reminder
I've come to understand, through all I live, I'll do it with you

Cause me pain, distort my name, invigorate, or elevate

Whatever I am, I am in your wake
You're a part of me, we're one and the same

Two beams of light, become one ray
To scorch my earth or light my way
In night or day, in pleasure or pain
I'm fused with you, my emerald state

Like ink in your skin
A lasting stain from history
Like ink in your skin
A self-inflicted exhibition of memory

A promise to self to
Cause me pain, distort my name, invigorate, or elevate
Two beams of light, become one ray
I'm fused with you, my emerald state
