I don't have the courage to touch a woman
(I lay down a line of a white powder)
I don't have the power to maintain silence
(face to table, inward vacuum of powder)
I want to feel her hair
(I lay back my head and close my eyes)
I fantasize about commanding her attention
(I swallow the pill)
I need to hear your secrets
(drink after drink after drink)
Need you to read my words and love me
(swallowed whole by emptiness)
Need to be needed
(need to forget this world)

(swallowed whole by emptiness)
Need to be needed
