Lyrics
my hunger
my hunger makes me eat bad things so I am full
so when emotions rise to the surface they are incapable
my constant thirst for love makes me refuse to drink
so when my fear like water rises it never reaches me
I have a picnic that I am saving
like the china, towels, the good clothes for some special future date
I will invite you when I am welcome myself
and juices will flow eternal sweetness
taste of my softened mouth
and so we wait
we wait
we waste
a banquet of erotic awaits my empathy
but constant hiding hostages bodies
vagues sensuality
this menu has grown old
it sabotages me
so when I bring it to our table it has consumed me
and so we wait
we wait
we waste
and so we wait
I have a picnic I had been saving
but now the china towels the good clothes are nicely fading
I have invited you now that I?m welcome myself
and juices do flow eternal
grapes of continued self
and so we wait
we waste
- from cd ?The Opposite Only Better?
