John Frusciante - Inside of Emptiness

Scratches

(One, two, three, four)

The scratches of a dark night
The rashes of foresight
And I wanted you, oh-oh-uh

The weight of my freezing
I had come to you
The face I was given
I have no similarities to
The spaces in the law look
Like the faces in a word book
I get by,
I get by

The matches of opportunities
The last thing I’ve never seen
And I scream to you, oh-uh

The pain I was needing (oooh)
Was sort of true
The one aim I was clearing (oooh)
Was the walls that grew
The crazes I overlooked
The leans into the cook
And I did,
And I did

And I was screaming bloody murder
And I was one with pain
And I stopped by the road side
‘Cuz this is from where I came

My God but it’s so far away
It would seem accidents have gone straight to you
And you’ve changed your point of view
And the places you’re going to
I got crowded,
I get crowded

And I’m so glad that you’re mine
It twists up the fabric of time
And I’m useless,
Yes, I’m useless

And your faces are bodies
And your hands are feet
Let me roll around
In things I can’t believe
But I tried
Yes I tried
And I tried
You know I tried

* The “I was one with pain” line is “when the charges came” in the official lyrics.
