[bodytext] => I chase women who I love. Don’t tell them my agenda. (2x) I’ve been walking blindly 'round the bend as long as I can feel the trail of her hair on my outstretched hand, might be in some kind of sick bazaar with shrunken heads, but I don’t notice their distress. I only notice that I’m falling down, laughs abound, but I haven’t even earned the merit of embarrassment from her. I don’t deserve this. I don't deserve this. I chase women who I love. Don’t tell them my agenda. They wouldn’t want to see this traveler with all the scars he has unkissed from times when he didn’t know just how to please, how to please. She doesn't notice me. I find the pothole much a token route for me to take, as I rise up like an urban Lazarus, given to the jungle of tape I never dared to tread before I saw where that woman goes. She walks right through herself. Maybe she too is hungry for some peer. Don’t tell me your agenda; for, I fear that you would choose a home already all dressed up, children roaming round the bend... your husband calling out your name. Holiday lights flicker in your home, a muted strobe quiet for children. I’d never have to talk to you unless he saw my face in the dark, staggering on my neck, when her hair ceases to flap in the wind: “Laura, who’s that man?” “Laura, who’s that man?” Well, I would dash into the black. I chase women who I love. Don’t tell them my agenda. They wouldn’t want to see this traveler with all the scars he has unkissed from times when he didn’t know just how to please, how to please. I chase women who I love. Don’t tell them my agenda.
