Never Known

Never Known
Cry in my sleep, sometimes you say
Sometimes you stay
You never know why, please say my name
Don't turn away
(Chorus)
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is bright

Then I awake in the half-light
Watching my movements through half-closed eyes
You're touching me as a priest loves pornography
We played beneath the patterns
Don't turn away
(Chorus)
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is bright
Kissed by the years, caresses of time
Marking the lines, the lines of expression
The patterns of place, the patterns of youth
The patterns of love
Don't turn away
Say my name, say my name
(Chorus)
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is black
The pain is bright
The pain is bright
