I want your hand
|
Across my belly
|
I want your breasts
|
Upon my back
|
I want your pain
|
To rip right through me
|
I am your death
|
You are my wrath
|
|
I'll take your hand
|
Beyond the threshold
|
I'll take your gifts
|
As art of fact
|
I'll take your tongue
|
Right down to my throat
|
You are my loss
|
I am your map
|
|
I find your eyes
|
They give me shelter
|
I find your lips
|
They give me peace
|
I find your need to take me over
|
|
Open my heart
|
I'll tell you stories
|
Open my legs
|
I'll read your mind
|
Open my mail
|
I'll tell you're forty
|
You are my fate
|
I'm your design
|
|
I'll lead you o'er
|
The city burning
|
I'll lead you home
|
To Provincetown
|
I'll lead you down
|
The soft dunes yearning
|
You're my vision
|
I am your sound
|
|
I long to be
|
Your handsome woman
|
I long to feel
|
The crease of time
|
I long to free
|
Medusa's stallion
|
I'm your water
|
You are mine
|
|
I need to carve
|
Your face in pavement
|
I need to die
|
In your embrace
|
I need to keep
|
A grave engagement
|
You're my power
|
I'm your disgrace.
