strong medicine

you feel like morphine
as you fingers coast slowly over my skin
i asked for you by name
now i’m drifting far away
on a road trip through my brain
i’m falling slowly and suddenly
i’m finding myself back where i began
love songs play on your radio
i feel okay, i’m not quite happy
we’re not quite there yet.
just a few more minutes
you’ll make me feel okay
just one more drive
i’ll return to sanity
and you can find your own way home
you can drop everything
again you can stop
everything you’re saying
we’re not bad for each other
we’re just bad for our dreams
we’re falling asleep
into nightmares
we’re not tired, we just leave
conciousness and sorrow
happiness is grand
i want to feel you breathing
and then i don’t want to feel you again
this is somewhat exciting
but i don’t want to talk about it
you’re heart’s beating faster
but a heart is only good for pumping blood.
