lyrics

Intimacy of the Hitman

She asked "How do I know"
He said "You don’t"

You care
But would you have me
Killed out of convenience
In the morning chill
You switch on Fulsom or Bitches’ Brew
Not sharing yourself with me
But performing yourself before me
Pacing and expounding
Ladling soup for invisible guests
A never-ending series
Of laboratory tests
Was I even human to you
Expose me to stimuli
See what I’ll do

Let me make it easy
When there’s static on the intercom
I cover my ears
And I scream
