i thought if i could find you in the maze
writhing bodies move through the haze
i thought if i could hold you i'd heal
the fear of missing out on feel
in neon bubblegum clouds
aroused in drunken crowds
moving through desperately
a windowless prison shepherds the free
reading your eyes for a sin to confess
is that look hungry, sensitive, or mindless
i'd love to pin your body to a wall
or have mine pressed against a men's room stall
but i can't get to that astral plane
the drinks hit a nerve, i'm going almost insane
my mortal coil is boiling over
and everyone in this room is getting closer
shoulder to shoulder at the command of the drover
feeling ill at the sound of someone else's cure
