No one ever wrung me free of my disease
That chilling moment when I learned exactly who I was
Careless and loving it was too dark for your eyes
It sure wasn't the lies
Swimming within you and your thoughts
Bleeding out the passion too many times
Staining your sheets with my thoughts
I raped every thought on those sheets
But the weight of my covers......
Couldn't put down the words that spilled from my lips
Gratification that I never went blind
I am sure that you wished I would
I could never keep you in your jeans
Splashing around in this pool of genes
Cutting the chord that dangled from your mind
Leaving me crawling and weak
Putting my loving heart in a bind
No more limits to how you feel
No more speed limits to how careless you are
Every word that comes from within
Exhales everything and the weights in your eyes
Look deep beyond what your heart seeks
Farther than what you hear
Smell something more than what you are selling
Reach out and touch your fear
It's what's standing in the mirror
