Beneath the Skin

on the edge
i look in
touch the flesh
touch the skin
cup my hands
time stood still
intoxicate
fire at will
pulsating through my veins

beneath the skin
skin and bone
beneath the skin
i am alone

smoldering
release, expire
confined within
i walk the wire
on the ledge
no return
saturate
melt and burn
rising from the flames

beneath the skin
skin and bone
beneath the skin
i am alone
