I Need a New Mistress
It’s not easy, but I’m trying
Trying hard
To forget your number, your skin and your lips
My body is punctured from your fingertips
It’s not easy, but we’re not dying
Just trying to keep guard
You of your feelings, not to get hurt
And I’m afraid that the secrets will turn into words
And the last time I saw you my wedding ring got tangled with your hair
You once said you like metaphors, well they hardly ever get that clear
So I think I need a new mistress
Someone who wants the making, but doesn’t want the love
I think that I need a new mistress
Someone who goes down without asking for the above
Oh how soft you look when the outside light gets in
And how hard your body moves when it melts with my skin
But recently your eyes got all filled with this sad concern
And I know that look too well; it’s a look I can’t return
So I think I need a new mistress
Someone who wants the making, but doesn’t want the love
I think that I need a new mistress
Someone who goes down without asking for the above
It’s not easy, but I am trying
Trying hard
To keep up a distance and keep us apart
To erase you from my memory
And to erase me from your heart
