Want

forgot what it felt like to want something you can have
if not for the thrill of the hunt, would i keep coming back?
until my senses are stunted by tinnitus and cataracts
maybe i'll be silent
there's something we should talk about, i never learned to shut up
you say you've got it figured out, well these days yeah who doesn't
i'm sure you'll benefit the doubt now you're the only one above it
now you've found something to do, so you don't have to tear yourself in two
forgot what it felt like to want something you can't touch
after the thrill of the hunt, all that's left is us
and it might seem criminally blunt: when basic needs are satisfied, want is never silent
you say you want to talk a while, i think i know what's coming
i know you'll say it with a smile, but inside you'll be running
back to some reality, where at least it feels like somehow you have found something to do
so you don't have to tear yourself in two

Bait and Switch

rachel's all a mess, she's ranting she's distressed
but you could spend all day with her
you give and then you take, you push you pull you break
so who's the real enabler?
who'd begrudge you that smile at the feeling of being wanted after a while?
i know its form, its shadow and its shape
a bait and switch, took 84 months to create
you'll watch it die, lying alone and awake
you'll be dreaming disaster and falling asleep unscathed
step outside to take the call that satiates
that brings relief from temptation
i wonder as i wait why i just can't relate
do i not feel it big enough?
rachel, cut us a break. yeah he's filling out paperwork by the light of your face
i know its form, its shadow and its shape
a bait and switch, took 84 months to create
you'll watch it die, but burial is no escape
you'll be dreaming disaster and falling asleep unscathed
