You console me and hold me to your body My hands love to hold yours We are obscenely closer than I’ve ever felt before One more breath and I’ll melt to the floor I don’t know if I can stand this feeling for much longer We are already a whole universe A rhythm escapes your hips and I am driven mad We are abstaining from the naming of these feelings Quickly it appears relevant to refrain from our embezzlement Of sound and sensation, since its never just about ******* We sweep the stairs and compare our share of stories We are beating ourselves into a form of beauty Bruised and confused we recoil at our duty And seek the comfort of hands that have never been this cruel We are bank robbers and mannequins Fantastic harlequins damaged by parliaments So we take it out on each other's hearts We are permanently trying to deny our inner spying But it never seems to work out as well as planned Later the next morning we fell a thousand stories And landed on our monologues and mortgages But life has a funny way of showing us our faults And our feelings never seem to lead us Exactly where they need to See we are desperately in need of another type of guidance So now I am replying to all your silly letters And having the time of my life playing out these archetypes One more night in the city and once more we take pity On our impoverished souls and ****** attempts at love
