Criminal, Animal
Xerxes
Anything to wake me up. I've been asleep too long.
Brushed red in my bedroom by insanity.
Dry wind, cold moon, perfect clarity.
Clean breath, quick heart, clenched teeth - I can't remember a thing.
Flying down the highway with my hands tied.
A loveless fuck, a guiltless joyride, but if I told you right now I didn't mean what it seemed, would you trust me? Would you trust me?
Clean breath, quick heart, clenched teeth - I can't remember a thing.
Keep your eyes locked on me like a criminal, or hang my neck on a leash like an animal.
Would you grant me the grace for these urges which I can't control? And why would I stop?
When what's prescribed is never enough, except to prolong the inevitable with my head in my hands and my heart in my throat.
I've been asleep too long.
