Permanent.

Earcandy: A New Tattoo | Urbandub
The gentle opening melody of the instrument painfully plucks at the strings of this machine in my chest, and I stare at yours, exposed by the deep v of your shirt where the permanent blue ink glows as if it was new. The mere sight of you almost brings me to tears. I shut my eyes to focus on sound–I recognise the song all too well. It breaks into distorted echoing strums, fast and steady as the singing starts. The vocals are desperate, heightening to a haunting, quivering falsetto. I’m literally breathless by the time you breathe out I tremble. I have never heard you sing this way, so sweet and angry at the same time. You beg, you confess, you resign and then… I’m marvelling from afar, waiting–toes curling, palms sweating, lips quaking–for you to sing the line that I so want to hear, and when you finally scream it out, I instantly shiver. Suddenly there’s no crowd, no band, no thought left in my mind; it’s just me sitting on the bartop and you staring me down as you rip the words from your lips and drive them straight to my heart.
I bleed for you like a new tattoo. In my heart you’ll stay…permanent.
