Mosquito in the Closet Lyrics

in the places where our bodies meet
and your skin is taut
by my hand's relief
the faint imprint
of our sensual unfolding
and the curves of your sides
like lullabies
sing me into
this unlikely dream
and like insects fly
to the nearest light
we seek the place
where we can finally burn
desire
like flame
and we can singe our wings
on the scent of pure release
where we break out of cocoons
so confining
so unnecessary
and we are swimming
with the creatures of the sky
and they can't bring us back down
not with the taste of supple freedom on our lips
they can't bring us back down
they won't bring us back
in the places where our bodies meet
and where we get caught
tracing lines beneath
the framework
that holds us
together and apart
but if we learn to wake
in the places we forsake
then we can realize
this unlikely dream
and like insects fly
to the nearest light
we seek the place
where we can finally burn
