I want to be naked

Better late than forever, as some guy once said
With a look on his face like his phone just went dead
After another shitty date with my fear and self-hate
I thought it might be better if we were just friends

You feel so free before your car hits the water
You feel so free before your love lives in the basement
I want to be naked

Better late than forever, as some guy once said
Why bother with sleep, I’ll fall to pieces instead
Can’t recall my younger face, inhibitions stabbed to lace
With my eyes on the prize and my back turned on death

You feel so free before your surgeon makes small talk
You feel so free before your love lives in the basement

I want to be naked
