You Kill Me
by Mark Zucker
I can’t have ya but ya haunt me
cuz I want ya cuz ya kill me
The pressure of your essence
Makes it stressful to stay present
Hard to say just something pleasant
While my body, I’m confessin’
Is commencin’ a-pay attention
And flashing threatenin’ intentions
Even suggesting some aggression
That would scandalize convention
But I’m just sayin’ just to mention
That ya kill me
I can’t have ya but ya haunt me
cuz I want ya cuz ya kill me
Sittin’ in my seat all ten toes tappin’ out a beat
I swear I fear a kind of heat if our eyes do chance to meet
Cuz my mouth keeps talking sweetly while my body screams obscenely
I can feel our poles align, our frequencies receiving
Yes, to one another’s sun all our flowers are all leaning
Our bodies just might topple if we surrender to the feeling
But it’ll never happen and that’s why you see me reeling
So I’ll just stand here rapping just to keep myself from kneeling
You only thrill me just to kill me
Must you fill me just to spill me?
I can’t have ya but ya haunt me
cuz I want ya cuz ya kill me
