wrap

and if i wrap myself around you
would you melt into my soul
would you wriggle as if resisting
only to enjoy the rub

and if you wrap yourself around me
would it be losing control
would you deny conscious choices
like the ring around the tub

how many times will you turn away
from the obvious experience you deny every day
how many times will you run and hide
from the euphoric experience you can know inside
when you come inside

holy men have haunted you for years
challenging your passion and your pain
so afraid of feeling that they condemn feeling real
drinking your tears, washing your brain, killing your zeal
until you don't know how you feel or if you feel
or what is real

and if i wrap myself around you
would you understand a thing
would you play the social game boy
fingering all the right keys

and if you wrap yourself around me
would you want a wedding ring
would you place rules and conditions
on the birds and the bees

how many times will you play the fool
in the natural experience that you try to rule
how many times will you play the game
exchanging love and peace for guilt and shame
and laying the blame

on holy men ahead of you for years
feeding you false hope between their lies
so afraid of living that they fixate on despair
and death as cheers pretend the fears are all you share
until you don't know how to care or why you're here
or who cares

time enough for love
if you live so long
answers wait for you
just like this song
all you have to do
is open your mind
the truth is there
where's it's always been
while you look elsewhere
instead of within
fear has made you blind
to your own mind
no wonder you think
life is unkind

and if i wrap myself around you
what would it mean?
was it all a dream?
