Flesh For A Fantasy
There's a change in pace
Of fantasy and taste
Do you like good music?
Do you like to dance? Oh yeah.
Hangin' out for a body shop at night
Ain't it strange what we do to feel alright? Oh yeah.
So when will you call?
I'm experienced Oh yeah
Face to face
And back to back
You see and feel
My sex attack
Sing it
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
We want
Flesh, flesh for fantasy
It's after midnight
Are you feelin' alright oh yeah
Turn on the light, babe
Are you someone else tonight?

I had read tons of science fiction. I was fascinated by other worlds, other environments. For me, it was fantasy, but it was not fantasy in the sense of pure escapism.

Everybodys Cheating
Keeping us together and holding us apart
Is a love that we talk about
Im finding it harder every day to take it as it comes
But as one fool once explained to me you cant choose who you
Love
Everybodys cheating on the one they love
Everybodys looking for the summer sun
No I believe Ill love you til my life is done
Ill live your lies and alibis
The telltale stories in your eyes
Cause you are, you are the one I love
Yes I love you, like you love me
I need you like a lover
No you need me and I need you
Were still cheating on each other
Everybodys cheating on the one they love
Everybodys looking for the summer sun
No I believe Ill love you til my life is done
Ill live your lies and alibis
The telltale stories in your eyes

A non-fiction writer pretty much has the shape of the figure in front of him or her and goes about refining it. A work of non-fiction is not as difficult to write as a work of fiction, but it's not as satisfying in the end.
