I kept my eyes in your neck
We made such a beautiful valley
And as the river kept it's posture
I lost everything I had
Our eyes connect like magnets
But they break with the speed of lights
I need anyone to tell me it's alright.
I kept my shoulders from the wall
Trying to make it spine to spine
Because the colors always mocked me
Taking everything that was mine
And as you spoke like clockwork
Every ghost, it came back up
Yeah you know, I will never have enough
Like a graduated cylinder
I stood straight with the grace of a tree
And as the volume ran up
I let it submerge me
But I hate re-watching movies
No I won't re-read my book
Just tell me that you might want to look
Like a burned out fire tamer
I watched your hues swim by so slow
You said it was nothing new
You said that's how your beauty showed
So I'll waste my spare change
I'll make a copper and silvered mosaic
Promise that you'll take me back.
