Chemistry Will Find Me

You think I am buried

You think I'm dead

But I just slipped out early

While you slept on in bed

You took my hair and laid me bare

On the screen I am just numbers

You took my hair and laid me bare

On the screen I am just lines

I know that chemistry will find me

And pull me out from beneath my lair

And you'll have the evidence to keep me

To make me face what I knew was there

Memories, photos, numerous no-shows

Birthdays and Christmas, me on the wish list

The air was cold and stung me

But my mind was free

To hope for freedom long forgotten

In a dim and distant past

You took my skin and cells within

On the screen I am just numbers

You took my skin and cells within

On the screen I am just lines

I know that chemistry will find me

And pull me out from beneath my lair

And you'll have the evidence to keep me

To make me face what I knew was there

Memories, photos, numerous no-shows

Birthdays and Christmas, me on the wish list

Loving the site of me coming through this door

Loving the knowledge that I can hide no more

Don't betray this confidence

This lack of trail or trace

That I seek when staring downwards

Where my feet try to remove me

You took my blood caked like mud

On the screen I am just numbers

You took my blood caked like mud

On the screen I am just lines

I know that chemistry will find me

And pull me out from beneath my lair

And you'll have the evidence to keep me

To make me face what I knew was there

Memories, photos, numerous no-shows

Birthdays and Christmas, me on the wish list
