naked I stand before you
no place to hide my flaws
guess that you could say
I'm a rebel without a cause
not quite sure what to do
to gain your applause
what if I dare
pretend I don't care
what would you do
don't hate your naked body,
or give care to those who do,
if we were born with clothes on,
i could understand those few.
methinks it much more shameful,
to be someone who has to hide,
from the nakedness of how you feel
about what you hold inside.

naked on the beach,
no towel underneath,
and the sand gritty
beneath, into, and
on top of everything
while lying next to the
ocean's rising tide,
the sea of hating,
remembering all
the loathing words
you spewed, berating,
salty drops of your envy
and resentment,
lost enchanment
drowns me, pulled
into the undertow
of remorse...
par for the course.

Naked and fearful, I stand;
Watching the world go by;
I'm not sure if anyone can see me;
In my window on the 16th floor;
I don't even care if they can;
But fearful I stand.
Stripped of my youth;
I never leave my house, my home;
I am an agoraphobic;
So I stay in my home were nothing can harm me;
No new clothes, to many germs;
No pets, they shit too much;
No Love, No kids;
No telling what they have growing inside them;
No open spaces, No closed spaces; everything I fear;
So I watch the world go by without me;
But that's ok, cause I am home... safe.
Alben stanno tall e nuda
brividi in aria inverni
cerca cappotti da indossare.
