I used to have so many words at my command
I’d spit em out and drop them, dripping, in your hand
I’d tell you all the secrets of my broken heart
I didn’t censor myself or restrict my art
But something’s got me scared, it’s got me bound and gagged
I no longer trust my tongue or my shaking hands
I don’t even know what I want you to call me
Can you recall the last time that you saw me
So undone, so spread thin, and I don’t think I am alone in my predicament
Everywhere I look I see averted eyes
Glances, glancing blows to isolated minds
Cracks in the concrete demanding scrutiny
What I wouldn’t give for a community
And here and there I’ve found a friend to help me through
So grateful for the love I see inside of you
Can we stay here forever in this river cold?
Let running water wash us til we’re clean and old?
To the bone, soak me deep, wish me a sweet dream I’ll be off to sleep.

I wanted to be an orphan all alone
I wanted to have a garden of my own
To climb into the branches strong and high
To sit among the birds and touch the sky
To know freedom
I know I needed them
But parents really seemed a drag sometimes.

O, lover, please come quickly
I am breathing, heart is beating
Life is good, but every night alone I find
I can’t sleep on these hot nights
my skin is burning for the light
touch of a finger tracing circles on my spine
I want company
I want love to fill my days
I get lonely
I know that isn’t cute to say
But I’m a human, just a being
Hot blood rushing in my veins
I am young, but I won’t always be
And whatever remains
When love is gone is something that don’t I care to retain
Am I running toward the light or am I standing in the rain?
I want company
I want love in every breath
I want chemistry
Strong enough to murder death

Underwear-My Destiny Awaits
by Nick Grunerud
A milestone in the Underwear oeuvre— more lyrical, more melodic, My Destiny Awaits is arguably more "mainstream," but it retains all the grit and strangeness that make this music so undeniable.
