Open
Spit you in the face
Unbiased, undefined
Slit your throat
Dotingly and refined
Cut through your heart
Found nothing but a shell
Of boundless emptiness
I look at you with a dirty face
Please, just please don't turn off the light
I want to be that tough
I want to open up
It's sickening
I know
But please--
Please don't turn off the light.
'Open' JoSav 1998
What's it about? Kid yourself. Kid yourself not too much.
