lyrics

Words have legs
Words lay eggs
Words get dizzy
on their heads
Get dizzy

This kind of sex is a fantasy
This kind of sex is anarchy
All beginning and no end
It’s only defined by how you bend
This kind of sex is meaningless
The kind of sex that you have when you have nothing left
This kind of sex is improbable
I remember when I thought it was co-optable

This kind of sex is unstoppable
Predicting what’s next is impossible
When you reach into the darkest pit inside
you’ll remember all those things you tried so hard to hide
It’s not a game of give and take
You can forget all of your memories
but you can’t shake
the role that you were given when you walked into
the first ritual reenactment you were invited to
This isn’t neurotypical
This is the reason you’re so miserable
When you disappear yourself into the screen
all your troubles go in bubbles into your bloodstream

This kind of sex isn’t criminal
This kind of sex is a miracle
You wrap your hands around your body and you start to pray
for the wisdom to ignore it
until your dying day
This kind of sex implies the end
This kind of sex can turn a friend
into a portal for achieving peace
Do you remember when you thought that that goal was even in reach?

This kind of sex isn’t physical
This kind of sex is invisible
When your eyes glaze over
and your skin gets hot
you’ve got to get again the grip you got
that got forgot
