Slip

Bumped my head today
tried on your dress
just to be you for awhile

Why do you sleep in my head
alone and quiet
trying hard to cut the right face

lights go out
fear comes home

chocking on darkness
can't see
can't hold on
Slip

Bumped my head in the shower
dreamed of snakes
bites and venom

Why do you shout in my mind
tall and straight
trying hard to hold the right face

Command the scene
steal the show
lurking in the wings
playing the part
for dirty stage
Hands

Lost the world today
trying to be me
didn't have the strength

Why do you talk in my ear
poisonous and cold
trying hard to light my dreams

light goes on
leaving town

Killing the memory
can't imagine
can't hold on
Slip
