Tittle: Layers
Challenge: tense
Disclaimer: I don't own them.
A/N: Inspired by the way Lucy is falling apart.
Peel back these layers
Of useless flesh made man
Beneath this restriction
Is who I really am
You're all so afraid
So tense this eve
Why should you be?
I'll make you believe
That under this skin
Is more than a beast
It's that part of you
I'll help release
I've always been
Hiding in your heart
I'm peeling back layers
We all fall apart
I'm a little fallen angel
I'm good as my word
I'm helping the world
Make a fresh turn
You'll thank me later
When the fire falls away
And you've all given in
To my sway.
