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.
