Couldn't find where to rub myself  I didn't want to close my eyes  I would scream just to shake myself  Just to wake myself inside    Broken into human parts I was sheltered by his chin  Lives spent in wet cement underneath his skin    Still on my neck the breath of the dead  Even as blood and bone  I can tolerate a still heart  But I can't stand being alone    Open me up anywhere you wish  Take out anything you like  Seal me up when you're through  Leave a little room for surprise  Made myself new one too many times  To swallow his breath away  I left too much space upon my back  To ever make him want to stay    Still on my neck the breath of the dead  Even as blood and bone  I can tolerate a still heart  But I can't stand being alone
