This Tattoo Lyrics

from What You Whispered

..............................................



With this tattoo you make a promise of who you are and what you think

this will be your binding contract written down in blood and ink



She had a life to live, the day she left home

She vowed no surrender, No company drone

She wrote it down in crimson, she wrote it down in black

She wrote it down so deep, she's never gonna take it back



Make your clear and solemn vow before the age of compromise

Write it here and write it now always right before your eyes



This tattoo, this tattoo will hold your vision, always looking back at you

This tattoo, this tattoo, this tattoo



It isn't on the surface, it doesn't need to be,

She wrote it down so deep, only she can see

She doesn't have to show it, it isn't made for show

She spells it out in action, its written on her soul



Make your clear and solemn vow before the age of compromise

Write it here and write it now always right before your eyes



This tattoo, this tattoo will hold your vision, always looking back at you

This tattoo, this tattoo, this tattoo
