The Things I don't say
I'm always reaching, grasping, kneeling
At a ghost fading through my fingertips
I'm always hurting, bleeding, healing,
Over the absent softness of your aspirin lips
I'm always wishing, sleeping, dreaming
Of a masquerade with a masked stranger
I'm always stripping, removing, revealing
Embracing the elements of danger
I'm always shooting, smoking, drinking
Not giving a damn about my health
I'm always fading, crying, trying
Losing the battle with myself
I'm always singing, playing, staying
Awake on your caffeine correspondence
I'm always breathing, living, dying
Wrapped up and warm in your immaculate bondage
