Closeness

breathless, i feel thumbs in my eyes
when i walk through your palace with all my alibis
it's the time when the milky tear burns the secret kiss of a smile
in your face this vanity and still the same
usual usual lethargy when i know that as i watch you
i watch you watching me

this womb is too small for me
this womb is too small for me

silence seems to be so loud
sinking into dreams
i scream out
closeness destroys
what distance builds
closeness destroys
everything

sullen like those dusky days
i erase each ray of hope now from my face
there?s no innocence left just longings for the next escape
while all my senses burn down in bitter shame and rape my
very last useful thought
so i stumble forward through that thorny maze of god

this womb is too small for me
this womb is too small for me

silence seems to be so loud
sinking into dreams
i scream out
closeness destroys
what distance builds
closeness destroys
everything
