Striptease

from Nobody Land by Markus Nylund

/

lyrics

Afraid to get our hands dirty
We lie awake lonely
Wishing someone
Would give us a push
Through the gate
If only

These clean white sheets
These clean restless feet
This soul stripped bare
Stuck in the glare
The comforting despair

She writes her love songs
Sings them in her hot baths
Wishing she was cleansed
Of all the dust that is settling
But her naked body remains
Craving to be stripped bare

I ain't messing with you babe
You know my name
You know my game
This is just the way I tell you
Things that you must know
I know I'm a selfish prick
For not keeping these stripteases
To and for myself

Our magic words
Our days of thunder
Will mean nothing
When we're over and under
When the waiting stops
When we have finally lost
And we're ready to start
