Caffeine

(album: Spider Web - 2018)

I hold all nights sacred, I hold up my back
Still days with no direction plague me once again
I tell you I'm down and I want something more
You wonder, you whisper, you don't

With this romanticism filling up my chest
You ask me if I'm ready, no of course not yet
I see you seven days, but then not for 17
The longing, the waiting routine

When only thinking about you doesn't seem to help
I like to stay in the back and be by myself

This new initiation comes as no surprise
Dark baptism open up my eyes
When every day is long and still I run out of time
The cycle, whose pattern, not mine

What you call pleasure really hurts my head
A call of balance mixed with real-life dread
I know that I'm strange and I...
Know that you're the one I like
I'm not like them other boys
I'm not like those other guys

When the waking up ritual isn't working out
I'm in need of a blessing and I need caffeine now
When the will of another leaves me in chains
I'll do surgery on myself today

When I'm not beside you I'm wasting time
When I'm not beside you we're mind to mind
When only thinking about you doesn't seem to help
I like to stay in the back and be by myself
Suffer alone and be by myself

I know that I'm strange and I...
Know that you're the one I like
I know that I'm strange and I...
Know that you're the one I like
