Darling can you hear me can you open up your eyes And see that every move I make is a dance just for your gaze That every single action is a means not to an end An opposite reaction to the diffidence we claim So paint me, take me, hate me, claim me make me something more Something better than the black and white that coloured me before I want to feel your body and your hands upon my chest To feel my emptiness So bury me beneath the pines In the shallow soil In the filth and grime And still this heart will yearn for you So I've hatched upon a plan, a scheme of dervish wit A pilot light to guide me through the caverns of your heart I take this knife upon myself and gouge a shallow track Until you love me back So bury me beneath the pines In the shallow soil In the filth and grime And still this heart will yearn for you
