Thumbs up against the sink
Hair plastered to her cheeks
Marduk t-shirt sticking to her skin

Refugee from a disco in old east Berlin

weightless formless blameless nameless

Stray syllables were gurgling
From her throat one at a time
Face hidden from my view
I let myself imagine she was you

Only weightless, formless, blameless, nameless

And when I washed my hands
I ran the water hotter than I could stand
Half rising to a crouch
Sinking back down to the floor
when you're walking keep your head low
Try to leave no traces when you go

Stay weightless, formless, blameless, nameless
