Everything's black.
The fear is so thrilling.
I'm guided by your swing.
Blood's running down my back.
Neck is so thin.
A vulnerable subject.
A dangerous aspect.
Feels better when it's skin on skin.
Take a good look.
This body’s your vessel.
I’m waiting for you, still,
to savour the sway you took.
So kiss me hard.
Harder than last time.
It's always on my mind.
Your soul has me shivered and scarred
Somebody to hurt me.
Feels better when it's
skin on skin.
Cut me up, and carve it in.
Feels better when it's
skin on skin.
Choke me with grace.
It’s keeping me down again.
I’ll figure it out when
I’m walking a strange new pace.
So hold my head.
Let my mind wander off now.
I’ll figure it out while
I’m counting the tears I’ve shed.
This one also took me a while to get into. It strikes me as less HC than Untitled and less poppy than Ultrapop (stupid I know). Let's call this the No Wave record. Its musical (and amusical) density is matching the persistent sound in my head right now. barnaby nygren
