I was tinkering with acid house bass lines. I came up with this on the guitar.

Is this real or is it a dream?
I can't seem to tell the difference anymore
Caught between needing and the need to be real
Your open arms gaping like a busted sore

Love and death die on the dirty floor
Your upturned face doesn't even see

Because I don't know what I want
But there's something inside
Something inside
Something inside
And I've done nothing wrong
My voice is nothing, my thoughts are nothing
In many respects I'm like you - nothing
I've done nothing wrong
