teen (age) lover,
is there anything
I can change?
We have lost time
                                      curse this watch
and lost touch
                          curse this skin

secret lover,
would it still work
if i hid our communion
under piles of dirt
                                       this calendar
skimming through streets,
acting like i don't know you
                              this equation

surface lover
i could feed us
with more lies
but nothing feels
better than the truth
that i walk in your dreams
                              but i'm the sleeper
and nothing can change that
                        nothing has changed that

these metaphors!
but i still live in your fear
these metaphors!
tell me you understand.

Please tell me you understand!
