I can feel the bubbles
I can feel the bubbles

silly me
effervescent laugh
laughing at me
what clothes are those
that give you a splinter
and make you bleed
silver, silver
silver thread
silver   silver   splinter
break the skin
twisted silver splinter
twisted silver sliver
crying crying
what is this pain?
Angels never feel such pain
I can nver feel the same
Are you shaky from your drink?
warming
draining, into the sink

I can feel the bubbles
I can feel the bubbles

tickle, tickle
tickle, tingle
Slow down
slow down
slow down
Stop----

scraping at the tile
slippery sallow smile
if only you could see
right through
to my
very being
soon now    soon now
I won't be fixed
I can't be fixed
I know the trick
of this two way mirror
it's just that we're
on the wrong side

time now
time now
smash the glass
silver      silver    splinter
it's dark inside
nervous anxious
steel my mind

I can feel the bubbles
I can feel the bubbles

separate me
from my skin
exorcize me
from my sin

broken, broken bottle
broken, broken body
drained
maimed
selfish selfish flame
does nothing but claim

Sleep
is it a dream?
Isn't life
ever
        what it seems?
