Other Voices - Cubanate

So here we are again

Other voices in different rooms

And you know, this means nothing

We’re gonna rent each other for an hour or two

And our conversation is the hiss of white noise

Just interference through bitter tissue

I never touched you

I want to but I can’t do it

I never seen you

I want to but I can’t do it

Do you know, friends come in boxes

So what’s this piece of wire I hold

I twist it 'til it breaks, and I think of you

I play cards with invisible girls

They always win;

I let them

Every corner hides you

I kill the time with red wine

In a house, in an empty… cage

I never touched you

I want to but I can’t do it

I never seen you

I want to but I can’t do it

I took a taxi in the rain to a disused building

I fell on my knees

I prayed to God knows what or God knows who

Poor, disconnected me

I never touched you

I want to but I can’t do it

I never seen you

I want to but I can’t do it

I never touched you

I want to but I can’t do it

I never seen you

I want to but I can’t do it

I want it, but I can’t get it

I want it, but I can’t get it

I want it…
