Properties of Friction |
Oh, the motor in the back of your neck |
Is begging and calling for sex |
And the lizards are laying some monstrous eggs |
In an entropic tropical mess |
While you’re sleeping, I’m crawling |
I’ve crept to the edge of the bed |
Where you’ve slept for a thousand nights alone |
In a cavern you call home |
I’m here so let’s do this |
Your hands on my legs |
You say the things I want to hear |
Let’s please just keep touching |
I don’t wanna think |
Please keep me from thinking |
I missed your name! |
Can I hear it again? |
I missed your name! |
Can I hear it again? |
While you were talking my eyes kept walking |
Down the walkway of your neckline |
So I didn’t hear you begging. |
Can I hear it again? |
So many dreams have left me tired, waking up and shaking on my own |
I ignored a ticking clock to call you and made a weapon of my phone |
Poor judgment and bankrupt morals! |
A girl without a penny for her thoughts! |
I guess I like you cheap |
I guess that conscience long since rot has sent me spiraling |
So lost into the planet of your skin |
There’s a fear that we will end that just won’t let me begin |
And though I have no qualms with lust |
Your body is a howling, haunted petting zoo that I really shouldn’t touch |
And as I’m walking out the door for good |
I turn around to look at you and you’re… |
You’re already undressed! |
If I draw near, do you disappear? |
If I stay away, will you call my name? |
