still these allergies remain
my hands can’t touch a string
my fingers just burn and ache
my head intercedes with my bodily needs
and my body won’t give it a break
my heart can stand a disaster
my heart can take a disgrace
but my heart is allergic to the women i love
and it’s changing the shape of my face
allergies
allergies
something’s living on my skin
doctor please
doctor please
open up it’s me again
but i go to a famous physician
i sleep in the local hotel
from what i can see of the people like me
we get better but we never get well
so i ask myself this question
it’s a question i often repeat
where do allergies go when it’s after a show
and they wanna get something to eat
allergies
