Still My Kin

[Verse 1] Pale skin

Thinner than it was back in the spring

Shadows underneath your sunken eyes look like bruises

The fridge is empty because you only want one thing

[Pre-Chorus] It is alright

I promise I will not flinch away

It is alright

Roll your sleeves and find a place to stay

[Chorus] Take what you need

Drink your fill

You are still my kin

I am here still

I am here still

[Verse 2] I braced for a sharp sting

But it feels more like a heavy tugging

A dull heat spreading through my forearm as you feed

You apologize and wipe your chin while we are hugging

[Pre-Chorus] It is alright

I promise I will not flinch away

It is alright

Roll your sleeves and find a place to stay

[Chorus] Take what you need

Drink your fill

You are still my kin

I am here still

I am here still

[Bridge] Wash the bowl

Check the locks

Clean the glass

Close the curtains before the sun starts to climb

We can survive this one day at a time

[Chorus] Take what you need

Drink your fill

You are still my kin

I am here still

I am here still

[Drop] I am here

Still mine

I am here

Still mine
