Absence of Fear


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

And I am wanting
And I am needing you here
Inside the absence of fear

Muscle and sinew
Velvet and stone
This vessel is haunted
It creaks and moans

My bones call to you
In a separate skin
Make myself translucent
To let you in, boy

I am wanting
And I am needing you here
Inside the absence of fear

There is this hunger
This restlessness 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 here
I need you near
Inside the absence of fear
