Innocent Skin

She speaks with tongues of fire
She is fluent in this flame
Her lips are hitmen for hire
Two thugs with deadly aim
Bullet hums again
Hear her bang and then
Break the innocent skin.

She’s holding hands with devils
She is ambidextrous
Both hands deep in this tar baby
Baby no way out tonight
And she’s stuck again
With this stain of sin
On her innocent skin.

I’m longing out the window
Sights and scenes and stories written outside
Still I see my reflection
Like when I look into her eyes
Caulk the slate again
Oh I’m cut again
See the blame within
Under innocent skin.

She speaks with tongues of fire
She is fluent in this flame
