Rewind the Tape
Nothing—you don't know nothing about me.
So you know just about everything huh.
I really can't hide from you can I?
No matter how hard I try
Under sheets…tangling masses of white
Enveloped by loss of feeling
Numb blankets
…masks, pretty perfectly painted masks that cover everything
Lies I'm not lying.
Not with you anyway.
And this is something I've been working on..
Me in progress—paused
