LITTLE WHITE MERCY

I'm a sick small ghost in a line. Crack of water, metal taste. I let them cross my tongue

My hands were trembling hard your name stuck to my teeth The room kept caving in and the floor came back to me Slow burn in my blood black static then a spark I can feel my bones unclenched than the dark little white mercy little white mercy pull me back again little white mercy little white mercy keep me in my skin

I wore the wreck all week, heavy in my chest Every step was broken glass, every thought a test. You found me on the edge with my face gone pale Now the hours quit their teeth, now the panic fails Burn in my blood, black static then a spark

I can feel my bones unclench, I can breathe in the dark. Little white mercy, little white mercy. Pull me back again. Little white mercy, little white mercy Keep me in my skin I was sinking through the floor, eyes through the pain, tears on my mouth, dead quiet, then

And the color starts again. Little white mercy, little white mercy
