There's a freckle on my heart
And a spot on my lung
A tumor near my liver
A blotch on my tongue
There's a gap between my teeth
And a hole beneath my eyes
A tunnel through my bones
A hollow path to my knees
Each limb is disconnected
My blood has started to dry
It heals
And scabs
And I pick
My circulation's sore
Nothing will go through
There's a blank idea I have
And a love I want to keep
A darling man in my life
A dream without sleep

There's a freckle on my heart
And a spot on my lung
A tumor near my liver
A blotch on my tongue
There's a gap between my teeth
And a hole beneath my eyes
A tunnel through my bones
A hollow path to my knees
Each limb is disconnected
My blood has started to dry
It heals
And scabs
And I pick
My circulation's sore
Nothing will go through
There's a blank idea I have
And a love I want to keep
A darling man in my life
A dream without sleep
