hello familiar stranger
there’s something soothing in the way you mirror me
we’re stuck together and it’s vaguely terrifying
you hold me by the neck and I hold you in my hands
hello familiar stranger
My solitude is broken by your lingering
The price of loving you comes at the cost of living
It’s getting higher by the day
But I wanna stay, I want you to stay
let the unholy bond become a healing balm
I’ll give you everything you crave
You’ll pall my bearings nothing saved
My sweet and sordid stranger
you’re getting closer and I feel you hesitate
don’t worry darling you’re not more than I can take
I promise when it’s over I’ll return the favor
Let the unholy bond become a healing balm
I’ll give you everything you crave
sweet salvation is there nothing to be saved
As you break my body
Don’t worry I don’t mind
It never fit the right way anyways
If I am useful to you it won’t be a waste

you’ve made an appearance in my frequent fever dreams
twenty years and two months old i wish i’d never seen you standing
capturing each other’s hearts like photos on the screen
i can be your baby if you treat me tenderly so tender
lead me down the hallway but skip over your room
all the good will follow after if you play the part i tell you to
touch me once and touch me twice then don’t touch me at all
if you see me crying just turn around because it’s not your fault
no amount of water is enough to wash me clean
five years and eleven months i’m still remembering you standing
watching me with teary eyes as i walk down the hall
not because i loved you but because you took the parts you wanted
leaving me in confidence with all your secrets shared
it’s okay because you said you’re sorry and you care
touch me once and touch me twice and come back wanting more
object of desire but not if it’s one that you’ve seen before
