Inside my skin
There is this space
It twists and turns
It bleeds and aches
Inside my heart
There's an empty room
It's waiting for lightning;
It's waiting for you
I am wanting, and
I am needing you here
Inside the absence of fear
Muscles and sinew
Velvet and stone
This vessel is haunted
It creaks and moans
My bones call to you
In their separate skin
I make myself translucent
To let you in, for
I am wanting, and
I am needing you here
Inside the absence of fear
There is this hunger
This restlessness inside of me
And it knows that you're no stranger,
You're my gravity
My hands will adore you
Through all darkness, and aim
Lay you out in moonlight
And reinvent your name
For I am wanting, and
I am needing you
To be here
I need you near
Inside the absence of fear
