Swim Beneath My Skin - Counterparts

How comforting it feels to breathe with hands around my neck

Sleepwalk your way around my arteries if you’re restless

Dig through me

(Dig through me)

Swim beneath my skin

In the precipitation I’ve graciously gathered

I won’t let you drown inside me

I won’t let you drown inside me

Useless blood will fade

Like a dark cloud that has purged itself of rain

Humanity will bathe in our transparency

Positioned over trenches

We allow our wounds to drain

Searching for a virgin conduit in vain

How comforting it feels to breathe

With your knees upon my chest

When consciousness disguises itself as paralysis

Dig through me

(Dig through me)

Swim beneath my skin

In the precipitation I’ve graciously gathered

I won’t let you drown inside me

I won’t let you drown inside me

Positioned over trenches so we can purge ourselves of rain

Falling from our wounds through empty arteries

You are the blood that my heart bleeds

You are the blood that my heart bleeds

Positioned over trenches

So we can purge ourselves of rain

Falling from our wounds

You are the blood my heart bleeds
