Inside my skin There is this space... It twists and turns It bleeds and aches Inside my heart There's an empty room. It's waiting for lightning; It's waiting for you I am wanting, and... I am needing you To be here Inside the absence of fear Muscles and sinew Velvet and stone... This vessel is haunted It creaks and moans My bones call to you In a separate skin. I make myself translucent To let you in, boy... I am wanting, and... I am needing you To be here Inside the absence of fear There is the splendor of this Secret inside of me And it knows that you're no stranger, You're my gravity My hands will adore you Through all darkness, and they will Lay you out in moonlight And reinvent your name For I am wanting, and... I am needing you To be here... I need you near... Inside the absence of fear.
