No Pressure, No Pain (Space) copyright 2000, Nozebone the Band

It is so nice.
I can't hear my heart pounding.
It's so quiet I can't hear my heart.
It is so nice not to smell anything.
I might have forgotten how to breathe,
But it's nice when it's darker than overcast midnight
with your eyes closed.
It is so nice and quiet and my fingers and my skin feel
no pressure and no pain and twinges.
It is so nice that my mind is so quiet. Like a uniform
I never put on. And I don't have to worry
or think
or determine what's happening.

It is so nice that I cannot feel you now... Or hear
what you are saying, or remember the words
you might have said.
And it is so nice
not to know if I know you
or remember if I met you.

It is so nice not to smell my nostrils.
Not to taste my tongue, or see my eyelids.
It is so nice when silence overtakes the sound of my heart.

And what I said an what I meant and what
you said and what you meant don't matter.
It is so nice.
