13. you deplete me

i'd prefer it if you played my pet

don't leave happy but stay upset

do you think i'm too direct?

my honesty commands respect

i haven't broken you up yet

 

you're no good, only good when you do what i tell you to

fall on, keep on falling on, just as i fell for you

 

i leash you with my lasso language

rope you into a thoughtful anguish

normal processes become the strangest

when my whim controls the main switch

claim my world and rearrange it

 

voicing my actions doesn't make them less ordinary

relenting into a boring stillness is for the buried

 

our candles' flames unite, forever we burn it

sweat your discretions into the furnace

i won't yield my assault until you return it

reluctant remarks will grow more earnest

until filters no longer concern this

 

tranquilize me to duties, compromise me when we can't agree

and i'll untame you to perform in my inflamed fantasies

 

kiss away my courage to

try some things both pure and new

you relish my weight that burdens you

drain my life that slowly murders you

driven by a dream of what we were to you

 

i do, i do, i doom you

i do undo you too

i do, i do, i doom you

undo and doom me too
