Here we are, skin on skin, But no closer than we've ever been. You're the one that I've always had to want, The need that only stays to haunt. Take my lips now, but you won't take your turn, No matter how many love notes I burn. You're the one I've always wanted in day, The need that I can't get to stay. The night is cold, star on star, And your knife in my need will leave a scar.

My Need
Here we are, skin on skin, But no closer than we've ever been. You're the one that I've always had to want, The need that only stays to haunt. Take my lips now, but you won't take your turn, No matter how many love notes I burn. You're the one I've always wanted in day, The need that I can't get to stay. The night is cold, star on star, And your knife in my need will leave a scar.
