letra de all i can do - tribe 8
i laid my gaze on the flesh of your blue-veined breast
i let my hand slip down your waist
down to touch the hem of your dress
my other hand reached around the back
of your neck too loose the b-ttons there
and that’s when i noticed you weren’t moving
not easing up close to me
not talking nasty stories all low and soft and steamy
not saying nothing
stiff
staring
like some kind of traumatized child
you cry when i touch you
you lie there and pray i’ll take my hands away
you lie still and whisper
“if i turn into wood i can wish you away,”
sometimes you look just like you did that
day in thе third grade when they took your
picturе, but you weren’t there because
you’d gone
you’d gone away, you’ve got that i-been-hurt-but-i-don’t-believe-it look
you’ve got that you-might-touch-me-but-i’ll-never-feel-it look
but my hands aren’t his rough hands
my face not his rough face
my voice not his singing threats
your eyes are wide
you’ve gone away
just like you used to when he would touch you
floating above us there you can watch us
under me lies someone i don’t know
someone i’ve seen a few times before
what do you feel when i back you up
against the wall in the kitchen
my leg pressed between yours?
do you feel him push you, do you see the
pictures of him as he stands with his feet wide apart
his hand on your shoulder, his belt in his hand?
what do you hear when i tell you “kiss me,”?
the hiss of his belt pulled through his belt loops
the cl!ck of the buckle, the sound of his
ominous, gravely chuckle?
no
i’m not that pr-ck wielding his d-ck like
some kind of weapon, i’m not the sick
b-st-rd that did this to you, i’m not him it’s
only me. i hate him, i love you, i’ll k!ll him
i want you, i want you, i want you to live
we’ll make him pay now
we’ll burn his house down
we’ll make him grovel
with a gun to his temple
your daddy
your daddy
your daddy
i know you hate
hate me to hate him
that hate stays safe in daughter’s hate reserves
all i can do is wait in the trenches to
retrieve the body of daddy’s girl
all i can do is cover you
i know you love her
all i can do is cover you
i’m not god, i’m just your lover
all i can do is cover you
