Piano Lessons

"Stop shaking right now and play the song
Da capo, gently but with force"
You say the words like you are strong
But I can see your dying core
If I play, will you sing along?
Your voice makes me feel less alone
Slow down and take a look at us
Now my entrails start to ache
Try to focus on the notes, first comes the C, then I don't know

No, I do not need to know your age
The ways of love are often strange
Not to worry, in the dark we can be whoever we want
Lower your hands so they fit mine
Nothing's made sacred by time
Melt down the snow between my thighs
Kill me now for the first time
Tear out my innocence,
Virtue's only a pretence

Dead stars still glow at night, the snow begins to breathe
Don't push me away
Dead stars still glow at night, but darkness needs to breed
Don't push me away, don't welcome your defeat

Touch my hand, teach it well
Touch my hand, teach it well

Don't lie, don't you love it now that there's a spark in me?
Don't push me away
If you're the tutoring hand and I'm the apprentice
Then do tell me why do you tremble like this?

Touch my hand, teach it well

Now let's just pretend you love me back
Adult words, mouth taken aback
Smoke weed beneath the big black sky
The Blackeberg bridge will melt the ice
Don't say that I'm too young to feel
Now I need you to let me in
I'll do it all, I'll press the keys like I know what it's like to live
Touch you right and make you strong like I know what it's like to love
Then I'll bring you back to life like I know what it's going on
