private eyes
looking me up and down
some rogue desire
is chasing us underground
with nowhere to run to
can't get no respite,
you've got me trapped like a rabbit in the headlights.
the climate shifts
across the line of the bedroom door
our eyes align
and we clash like gladiators.
no-one else to become -
i've used up every disguise,
you've got me stunned like a rabbit in the headlights.
(just a rabbit in the headlights)
stuck fast in the cold glare,
this body burning up inside
at the point of re-entry
to the waking life.
