Some nights I thirst for real blood, for real knives, for real cries.
And then the flash of steel from real guns in real life really fills my mind.
Then I really miss what really did exist when I held your throat so tight.
And I miss the bus as it swerved from us and almost came crashing to its side.
Sometimes the blood from real cuts feels real nice when it's really mine. And if you
it to be real, come over for a night, we can really, really climb,
and those blue bridge lights might really burn most bright while we watch that dark lake
And if you really want to see what really matters most to me, we can just take a real
drive.
Just a drive into the dark stretch, long stretch of night, will really stretch this
mind. And this room, unlit, unheated, and the ceiling striped, and the dark black blinds....
I want to know this time if youre really finally mine. I need to know that you're not
and so I want to see you tried. And I don't want to hear you say it shouldnt really be
way, because I like this way just fine. And theres nothing quite like the blinding
when that curtains cast aside, and no attempt is made to explain away the things that
really, really are behind:
You can't lie etc etc
