I no longer cared about sweaty palms, After I felt her hands I would catch every disease just to hold on It no longer mattered. Only she mattered. Everything but my hand, a void My body, space; My hand, the earth; Her fingers, the sun. That hand taught me how to live. Nothing past had mattered The thing that mattered was this hands owner Not even the voice that wanted to let go and run. Following up her goose bumped arm To a dress that made summer jealous, Skin that beat fresh snow And hair like autumn trees. If mother earth was real Her real plan was this girl The sky was made to reflect of her eyes Then bounce into my soul. The only time the horde in my brain halted And the fleet in my stomach retreated To think the best medicine could be a human She threw all the pills out the window Pain killers came through kisses, The psychotic moods gone with hugs, Vocal novacane caught tears And the only sickness was love Now without her. Its withdrawal of happiness Human touch now words on a page Love hidden under the bed.

Human Medicine
I no longer cared about sweaty palms, After I felt her hands I would catch every disease just to hold on It no longer mattered. Only she mattered. Everything but my hand, a void My body, space; My hand, the earth; Her fingers, the sun. That hand taught me how to live. Nothing past had mattered The thing that mattered was this hands owner Not even the voice that wanted to let go and run. Following up her goose bumped arm To a dress that made summer jealous, Skin that beat fresh snow And hair like autumn trees. If mother earth was real Her real plan was this girl The sky was made to reflect of her eyes Then bounce into my soul. The only time the horde in my brain halted And the fleet in my stomach retreated To think the best medicine could be a human She threw all the pills out the window Pain killers came through kisses, The psychotic moods gone with hugs, Vocal novacane caught tears And the only sickness was love Now without her. Its withdrawal of happiness Human touch now words on a page Love hidden under the bed.
