Hold me close
Grab my hand
Bundled up in clothes
Put my mind at ease
Give me a break from
All the things I need
Wrap me up
In robes of human comfort
And for just a moment
I won't feel so
Goddamn alone
Shallow words
And fleeting memories
A quick fix for
For feeling empty
So fix your needle
And find your vein
And shoot it fast
Something to kill the pain
Lay my will
At the foot of the bed
With the rest of our clothes
And hold me close
Like lovers do
When they have something more
It's a bad desire
As far as they go
To look for comfort
In someone else's soul
And try as I might
It bites me over again
Before its over they're gone
Someone else to light the dark that they're in
Lay my will
At the foot of the bed
With the rest of our clothes
And hold me close
Like lovers do
When they have something more
And as we lay
Know that this
Will soon be part of the past
An image of love
Made from
Nothing more than a cast
