Porcelain Veins

Lowstate

Porcelain veins beneath my skin
White and fragile, paper thin
Every pulse a quiet plea
For someone real to look at me

I can feel the fracture starting
Hairline cracks in who I am

Porcelain veins, don't let me break
Every breath is one more shake
If I bleed, it won't be red
It'll be the words I never said
Running through porcelain veins

Hands that hold but never stay
Eyes that slowly look away
Every touch too much to bear
Every silence fills the air

If I shatter, let it show
I don't want to hide it anymore

Porcelain veins, breaking slow
Every truth I let you know
If I fall beneath the weight
Let the cracks illuminate
What was hiding in my veins

Fragile doesn't mean invisible
