Kent-We Need To Eat
Posted by Anna Johnston on Thursday, April 12, 2012
She grows silent, the light falls
Does it scare you?
Does it chew you to the bone?
I'm sorry, I didn't know
Then I won't put the lights out
Though you hate to undress before my eyes
For your pale skin is in need of summerlight
I say: You need to eat
She says: I'll feed on your breath
What if I leave?
She says: Without you I'll be dead
I need some sleep
but I can't let her alone
and if I leave
I'd be afraid of coming home
She grows silent, the light falls
Cause it scares you
and I can't help but smile
And your best friend has to be the morninglight
I say: You need to eat
She says: I'll feed on your breath
What if I leave?
She says: Without you I'll be dead
I need some sleep
but I can't let her alone
and if I leave
I'd be afraid of coming home
I'm losing you
I'm aware of the words I'm using
Losing you...
If you really have to know
I'm sorry but I have to let you go
I say: You need to eat
She says: I'll feed on your breath
What if I leave?
She says: Without you I'll be dead
I need some sleep
but I can't let her alone
and if I leave
I'd be afraid of coming home
Does it scare you?
Does it chew you to the bone?
I'm sorry, I didn't know
Then I won't put the lights out
Though you hate to undress before my eyes
For your pale skin is in need of summerlight
I say: You need to eat
She says: I'll feed on your breath
What if I leave?
She says: Without you I'll be dead
I need some sleep
but I can't let her alone
and if I leave
I'd be afraid of coming home
She grows silent, the light falls
