Pink Eyes

Not addicted to night, afraid of the morning
I awake and feel like someone is here
But I’m laying right out, going darker and darker
When my skin peels away roses appear and I’ll turn over

Find me in the corner of the round room
Reaching into dawn to find night blooms

Beauty, how you blind!
Give me a reason
Without sight
I will ever find you
And how you blind!
I know the reason
I can’t stop touching my eyes

I’m allied to the night and warring the morning
I retreat into the dark if someone is near
You can lay me right out with the right kind of flower
When my senses slip away lilies appear

In the hot house you’ll find me
Staring at the end, again, in rapture

Beauty, how you blind!
Give me a reason
Without sight
I will ever find you
And how you blind!
I know the reason
I can’t stop

I lick my fingers
(Lick my fingers)
Make my tongue go numb
(Make my tongue go numb)

I chew you from beneath my nails
(Make my tongue go numb)
Put your petals in my mouth

Put your petals in my mouth

Beauty, how you blind!
Give me a reason
Without sight
I will ever find you
And how you blind!
I know the reason
I can’t stop touching my eyes
