His looks erase me, his tears and I exist Only as a warped reflection of myself in his eyes His speaks seem broken, mutilated tones that echo Secrets exposed, and shame best left unheard All up into my frozen eyes, cracked in his head, lights are out He's set for the impact He blunts against me with the force of my waiting, self-hating pose There's nowhere left to hide but entitlement Inside, so bare and out I'm stuck, stepping away from inside I'm stuck, standing in the dark Bound with my love My inability to live In without the eyes Rage, disclaimer, written inside All the people in the language I control It's a form of time Fear stopped me, time exists I touched him, a second hand, barely moving in time To avoid demanding child-like seconds, lost to the arrogance of need He watched me turn against myself I couldn't turn away But I believe in bad intentions But I believe in reality Inside, so bare and out I'm stuck, stepping away from inside I'm stuck, standing in the dark Bound with my love My inability to live In without the eyes Rage, disclaimer, written inside All the people in the language I control Inside, so bare and out I'm stuck, stepping away from inside I'm stuck, standing in the dark Bound with my love My inability to live In without the eyes Rage, disclaimer, written inside All the people in the language I control It's like this game that we play with each other Hide and seek, and then we should be in and out I keep hiding, counting to ten, and he keeps looking for the wrong person
