Wear |
I tried to wear the world like some kinda garment |
I reach my fingers down inside of all the clinging pockets |
In fabric, stained and torn and scratched |
Pulling at the seams |
I wandered out onto the streets like that |
Dressed so gracelessly |
It does not matter to the world if I embody it |
It could not matter less that I wanted to be a part of it |
Still I fumble with my hands and tongue |
To open and to part it |
I tried to wear the world like some kinda jacket |
It does not keep me warm, I cannot ever seem to fasten it |
Bodies never want not to move, they wanted all of it |
To be hidden, to be touched, to be known |
To be undressed, to be clothed |
Why can’t I be the body graceful in the cloth of it? |
Why can’t you want me for the way I cannot handle it? |
Am I ever understood? |
Am I hidden by this hood? |
I tried to wear each word that you had ever said to me |
Even as careless as it turns out you have been with me |
I still reach out to hold everything that I’m told |
I still reach out to hold everything that I’m told |
I still reach out to hold |
To touch until we fold |
I still reach out to hold |
I still reach out to hold |
