Analysis of SiS3 - Let Me Sink In
Trynt James Miley 2005 (Oh)
AND AS I FEEL YOU;
AS I FEEL MYSELF SINK IN–
AND AS I STEAL YOU;
AS I MAKE MYSELF WIN
THE POINTLESS FIGHT
AND YET–
YOU STRUGGLE AGAIN!
Again.
And as I enter,
THROUGH DELUSION–
I find the center,
CUT YOUR SIN–
Of your delicate heart,
WHAT SINKS IN IS NOT ME,
It is but an extension of my soul–
A BLADE, ONLY, WILL SET YOU FREE,
As I cut and carve through flesh and bone—
I wonder how long you’ll take to lose...
