I seek your round face in the dark,
with my long pale skeleton-led hands
those people don't know
about your boring brown eyes
my boring brown eyes
as you tell me of pains
and expectations, rounding your shoulders
I will nod and rest my useless long hands
but I'll never really fathom
with my stupid brown eyes
and I can't teach you my inner language
because I cannot speak it
my stranger long hands grasp at everything
and yet they're not so deep,
my ugly flat empty evil boring brown eyes
