why did i ever think that today would be any different

i cant shake them off even though i love it
i adore when those feeling show themselveslike proof of whats in my body coming to light

those lines compounding with me
i take my hair in fists and try to resist
but they drip and drip and driponto my cold bedsheets they stain
gray clouds of ecstasy
of such sad ecstasy
soon i compose myself and relish in the stingingand i then stare into the twitching eyes
of someone i thought was me
but before i can stop it
those lines confound me again
