Diane Cluck - Ink & Needles Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Someone's ink and needles
  • have written skin riddles
  • on his body, bare before me
  • except for these sketches
  • signal and semaphore
  • for things he won't talk about
  • quiet and shut about
  • his padlocks and latches
  • my fingers trace his pictures
  • and at each his breath catches
  • he says why are you bare
  • bare as the day
  • day you were born
  • born from your mother
  • i say so you can tattoo me
  • with the marks of a lover
  • the red trails of his fingernails
  • the bumping palette of his boney hip
  • sharp tooth beneath his softest lip
  • the kiss obscures the bite
  • he sketched his designs on me
  • all through the night
  • he finished and was sleeping
  • so i jumped the early flight
  • now a thousand miles away
  • with the passing of the days
  • your colors fall from my skin
  • like the moon smooths out the waves
  • so quietly they left that i didn't see them fade
  • i don't need ink and needles
  • to write me my excuse
  • the body does tattoo itself
  • with old age and abuse
  • with lines pooled / pulled from the inside
  • drawn from pain and reverie
  • my body will tattoo itself
  • with what you mean to me
