257 (04.04.2015)

Get all my children's names across my back
And get myself a sleeve upon my arm
Some angels on my pecs in blue and black
And in Chinese the marks for "Peace" and "Calm".
Bluebird hovers on an ancient shoulder
The checkout girl's got roses on her wrist
That stay the same, just as she grows older,
Her boyfriend's got the word "Love" on his fist.
Rock singer: Demons writing "Hard as Nails",
And snakes appearing from a woman's holes.
There's different dots for different gangs in jails
There's ripping flesh that shows off burning souls.
But it's just skin, there's nothing much to lose
'Cause all the prettiest people have tattoos.
