Nudity

I follow every line, every twitch around your eyes Your frame objectified The pain your nerves defy Tap into me Explore the corners of my bowels and turn my insides out Stain the paper with each round, record the rhythm Endurance Convert us Resurface me whole Motionless in the star of flames Choose your weapons wisely Your absolution will define us You’ve got your fingers down my throat, test limits of control Do you catalogue the wounds and feed off them? Endurance Convert us Resurface me whole

I feel safe in these altitudes Nail me down and run me through I can’t hear what you’re tripping to Nail me down and run me through I feel sane in your gratitude Nail me down and run me through I can’t say what you’re clinging to Nail me down and run me through When we walk away, will I ever get the rest I got around you? Tight hold And my head is hanging upside down It’s been strange, looking into you Nail me down and run me through We’ve locked eyes in the interlude Nail me down and run me through It’s been vague, looking over you Nail me down and run me through We’ve grown roots in the interlude Nail me down and run me through When we walk away, will I ever get the rest I got around you? Tight hold And my head is hanging upside down. Could you taste it in the sweat that drips from my chin? That I breed it, need it Obsess about it every day Did you prepare and arm yourself? Was there distinctiveness to your stay? It boils down to salt or cyanide. My body’s cold

Entangled in the imagery Heavy flow in upstream arteries Two eyes below the surface Sweet and shallow spot Half asleep and nervous Hear you, I cannot Entangled in the imagery Tracing wavelengths inconsistently The others seem at peace here They tell me to stay calm Though your skin is callous Wrap me in your palm I won’t let you overtire Overshadow your desires Deprive your skin of light Walk the fields where I lie Take me far lower and stretch the frame of time Just for one moment, our consciousness collides Walking over you Your resistance is a brush of a feather Walking over you Tear open slowly, the sky above my eyes Transcend the distance between your will and mine I won’t let you overtire Overshadow your desires Deprive your skin of light Walk the fields where I lie

Soften the crescendo Silhouettes through stained glass windows Thick snow covers you Bite my lips, slipping away, slipping away from here I’m not at your beck and call, now Turn a blind eye to the ghosts I’ve been sleeping with And I will try not to hunt yours down Anticipation I can’t sustain it Cheap frustration So dialated Caress you with a blanket of warm breath Washing out the mutual shades of blue From our mouths, stale smoke whispers Bodies shared that hardly stay in tune Whatever I am hauling is yours now And it doesn’t make a difference to you Cause you just want to be desired Starve me, I’m craving Keep me from staying This shape ain’t mine, It’s all for the taking

I never meant to neglect you, despite the duality Cut loose from this delicate apathy Will you follow suit if I just try to stay warm? Dreaming away every passing storm Every inch of your affection feels undeserved Surviving on a steady diet of repeat and reverse I never meant to neglect you, despite the duality Cut loose from this delicate apathy Was it in the cards, for us to strangle it slow? Never sure if my aim’s too high or too low We’re cutting corners We’re running on fumes Did you feel restored, head to toe in his skin? Always felt constricted in the set that I’m in. Never been compelled to revisit those scenes. But I can't place an ounce of blame on your choice of retreat. I am the serpent and the preacher, still the same child Don’ t haste the daybreak, crawl inside me for a short while You are the limb I can’t sever to save my life You are the limb I can’t sever to save my life

This day and age is so This day and age is so over you This day and age is so This day and age is so over you Flying lower Drain me sober I can’t let you see this hanging over me Deceive you into thinking I can shoulder you I see daylight when in full disguise Pure and ripe Running down my spine I don’t mind Razor sharp on the edges of the bliss that surrounds you I’ve kept my distance to our own fragility Stand in line for my share of the loss that you’ve been through Standing by for the curtains to this fantasy Got a clear view Waiting for cells to divide Cold and quiet I’ve grown accustomed to your breath down my neck Dent my illusion of safety void of strife I’ve grown accustomed to your threats pulling me under Over and over I wonder who’s to go I’ve grown accustomed to your breath down my neck Dent my illusion of safety void of strife I’ve grown

Dive into your mind Swimming through the muddled tides Forcing all the colors to bleed through I cannot decide I’m unavailable all the time Catch my teeth on your frail youth In on it for a taste of how you hold yourself You are a thousand parts of every ache you shelve All you do is dance, through every hour and circumstance Everything I touch, I wreck Need to be around every song and stuttered sound To stay in tune with the offset I want to yearn I can’t commit to anything All that I want is everything I can’t commit to anything All that I want is It takes forever Construct and hold together Disclose, contract and shiver

You know I’ll carve my space in time for the last call Carve my space and hide Whether it’s the knot in my chest or grind in my knees Carve my space and hide Remind me that we’re destined to undress somewhere I don’t know how not to flirt with seclusion Sleeping next to Swallow light like the ocean Subdue the hunger with silence so golden What makes your anger swell? You know I’ll carve my space in time for the last call Carve my space and hide Whether it’s the knot in my chest or grind in my knees Carve my space and hide I just want to feel and be told that I’m sound I can’t bear to think I need no one around I just want to see this through

Did you feel the symptoms trimming off the edge? Shaving off the static of your every pledge Dead tired and unsound Of time, you run out Thinning out the herd Overwrite the urge Like your darkness thicker, like to court your fear? With your burdens lighter, keep your ceilings near. Dead tired and unsound Of time, you run out Thinning out the herd Overwrite the urge Intricate circuitry Pass through my perception Craft phrases carefully Kaleidoscopic tension Inside the archives, skinning it down to the bone Bring me to full boil, every last drop that I hold Every last drop that I hold Every pleasure outgrown All attraction’s benign Stagnant rotations Defiling the sacred I’m losing my patience with time Outstretch the ending And finish defending the ruins that you call your home
