Shiver

Shiver down to skin
you bruise my soul,
I let you win

I'm screaming silent words
you beat the tears back in
Grab a fistful of my hair
pound - I'm too numb to care
Push until I cry
I'm meant to break, not to die

Then you cradle my shell
say you're sorry "that I fell"
say you love me more than life
you just lost it, it'll be alright.

I shiver down to skin
you tear my soul
I let you win.
