Touch
When will I feel this
As vivid as it truly is
Fall in love in a single touch
And fall apart when it hurts too much?
Can we skip past near-death clichés
Where my heart restarts, as my life replays?
All I want is to flip a switch
Before something breaks that cannot be fixed
I know, I know, the sirens sound
Just before the walls come down
Pain is a well-intentioned weatherman
Predicting God as best he can
But God I want to feel again
Rain or shine, I don’t feel a thing
Just some information upon my skin
I miss the subtle aches when the weather changed
The barometric pressure we always blamed
All I want is to flip a switch
Before something breaks that cannot be fixed
Invisible machinery
These moving parts inside of me
Well, they’ve been shutting down for quite some time
Leaving only rust behind
Well I know, I kno, the sirens sound
Just before the walls come down
Pain is a well-intentioned weatherman
Predicting God as best he can
But God, I want to feel again
Oh God, I want to feel again
Down my arms, a thousand satellites
Suddenly discover signs of life
