Secret Touch - Jenny Hval

As I write this I must pretend

Someone's holding my hand

Probably someone dead

Will be the only one to hold me now

Ice cold

I was waiting forbidded

No one knew I was waiting not even you

I was not speaking

You would choke me

And you came to me

As if someone just died

Consolidation but violently quelled

Kissing through the glass window

Passion separated by space

Legal blood money

And the space of freedom

Free

Free

Consolidation oh it's an excuse

As if someone had just died

Condolences

And silence is rising public places

And we're gathering it comes a cathedral

For a short moment in time

I'll let you wipe out my facial features

But flushes are the loneliest creature

And if suddenly silence spread all of a sudden

I'm the fool

Adore infinity no

I need infidelity

Laid awake unawake

Followed her suddenly to a room

And kiss with blood intention

To avoid thinking of death

Death

Death

It's changing undone

For another twine

There comes a certain point in our lives when we more or less

Desperately want to be bad

When we gladly exchange the good things

Just for a short moment feel alive

I can tell you that ne'er felt so

So alive

As when you embraced me

You were travelling

And you came to me

As if someone had just died

Consolidation

Of violence of separated nights

Need to need to regret it

Because we have no language

To express that applause boast

Ravishing ravishing

Destructive and most of all most of all

Absolutely necessary

Be sane to feel alive

Free

To die to die

Free

Certain moments
