| Darkness Never Comes | |||||
| Comfort finds me easily this night, but the darkness never comes. | |||||
| Electric images dance on the walls and the television softly hums. | |||||
| A sidelong glance finds Mel Gibson setting Scotland free. | |||||
| It's not the reason I lie awake, or maybe, it could be. | |||||
| A simple press of a button sends the images away, | |||||
| And I'm left alone with my thoughts and reruns from my day. | |||||
| I think of what I should have done and what I could have said, | |||||
| And why a normal guy like me wears lingerie to bed. | |||||
| I tell myself I like the feel, but in my heart I know there's more. | |||||
| The clothes are just a part of it, that much I know for sure. | |||||
| I wear them and I feel alive, it lightens up my heart. | |||||
| In my soul I know I'm feminine, I just want to look the part. | |||||
| A tear drop wells up in my eye for the girl I cannot be, | |||||
| I shut my eyes to trap it there, and the darkness finally takes me. | |||||
