"doing it again"
ok so I've done it again
and I'll do it again
and god help me,
I'm doing it again
but it's not the same anymore
it's not rehashing
not rehersing
not performing
to that same old script
this is something new
even if I am doing it again
this is cleansing
burning
scaring
carving it away
layer by bitter layer
skin by bloated skin
but I'm so thick
and I just don't see the peeling
coming to an end
so I keep rubbing
I keep scratching
and god help me,
I'm doing it again
picking at tender flesh
until the blisters pop
and the skin is just so sore
and I've rubbed it all raw again
and whatever I touch
is made of salt or tobasco
and I can't help but take it to my heart
and hold it tight
until it runs away
in yellowed red
and rivulets of long forgotten fears
god help me,
I know that this will end,
but I'm doing it again
