There is a dark I cannot fill,
There is an empty space, small but noticeable still.
A city at midnight, a body to hold,
Of these I dream but my mind is cold.
Have I lost myself once again?
Please, please help me darling,
One, two or three, I am in need of a friend.
He's the first person I tell,
But you are the first one I wanted,
And he is the one I don't know about,
These neon lights flash but I still feel haunted.
There is a light that blinds my eyes,
A truth washed free under these grey skies.
A body close, heat between?
A fantasy snatched from a waking dream.
Maybe I am lost, maybe I am reborn,
I feel my mind is finally free,
But freedom's cost is my own self scorn.
Beaten and blinded, now fill my ribs,
This is strange and bizarre, my body flaunted,
These are the ones that set me on fire,
Body, heart and mind, still to this day, all are haunted.
