Brena

A Perfect Circle · Mer De Noms [2000]

My reflection wraps and pulls me under healing waters

to be bathed in Brena



Guide me safely in worlds I've never been to

Heal me Heal me My dear Brena



Vunerable

(Mull around) it's alright



Heal me Heal me My dear Brena



Show me lonely and show me openings

To bring me closer to you My dear Brena



Vunerable

(Mull around) it's alright



Opening to... heal... Opening to... heal...

Heal... Heal... Heal...
