Vessels

Julien Baker

Tell me, in thin paper, about your love
Breath, like thick water, lives in my lungs
My skin is full of black ink in your white clothesFor so much I think, little I know

Pull off my armor, knees bruised and naked
Peel back my skin, call out my name
Vessel of brightness, come make me blind
This present darkness is swallowed by light

And my skeleton is a house for my eyes
Purchased with a bleeding side
