We Need to Talk


Sorry to bother you, but we need to talk
Grab your coat and let’s go for a walk
You’re not in trouble, of that I’m sure
I swear my intentions are good and pure
But something you did upset me so
It’ll be a while before you finally know
Let the quiet tension build within you
Run the gamut of drama old and new
Anxiety weighs heavily on your soul
Head is swimming, blood runs cold
You already forgot you’re not in trouble
Let your stomach acids boil and bubble
Remember that thing you did days ago?
Remember what you said with angry flow?
It hurts when you do that, don’t do it again
I actually reconsidered us being best friends
I’ll put it behind me, no question about it
But even you are beginning to doubt it
You’re red in the face, damp in the eyes
The next word from your mouth is a cry
You hold it in, let your eyeballs ache
Let your mind circle, your heart break
We had a good talk, though you never spoke
You desperately wanted this to be a joke
You won’t accept a hug from my arms
You won’t accept my sweetest charms
When we get back home, you stew alone
Glued to your computer or smart phone
Anything to get away from the awkwardness
And the guilt and shame on top of this
Until next time when you do it again
Solitude and blankets, your only friends
Make no mistake, we needed this talk
But when I’m gone, you’ll change the lock

Skin On Skin


VERSE 1
A squeeze of her shoulder, a ruffle of her hair
Let her know that you’ll always be there
A scratch of her back, a hold of her hand
Comfort your lover any way that you can
A kiss of her face, the gentlest of hugs
Gets her high like the strongest of drugs
It’s better than spending another minute alone
No such connection can be found on your phone

CHORUS
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win

VERSE 2
I know you’re scared, somewhat unprepared
I know it’s not fair when it’s truth or dare
I know you think what you touch turns to ash
I know that mirror is all but yours to smash
What do you do when she calls your name?
Walk away? It’s just like more of the same?
What do you do when she wants your touch?
Can you find it within you to love and trust?

CHORUS
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win

VERSE 3
Take a walk together on the beach’s dockside
Lose track of the time as it passes clockwise
You can talk for hours on what love truly is
Sooner or later, she’ll want to sneak a kiss
Will you curl on the ground as your heart pounds?
Or will you listen to her voice’s sweet sounds?
Make the right call, your back’s against the wall
When it comes to love, how hard will you fall?

CHORUS
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win
Skin on skin is never a sin
Her heart is yours to win
