Chimerical
Let us go, then, let us fly
right up into the starry night sky
first to the black, and then to the white
‘til the morning makes us forget the night
Grab my hand, call me your girl
make my body dance and my heart twirl
take me out for a diet coke
pretend that we aren’t even broke
seduce me using just your eyes
silence my prevailing cries
lie with me on a random lawn
laugh until we see the dawn
Take me down the long hallway
before the sun, before the day
take me for a little tumble
before that we make that daunting stumble
make me fall, then fall once more
beg me not to walk out the door
hold me down and hold me tight
in that soft, everlasting sea of white
A train clatters by, and for a moment
time stops and we are forced to stay silent
Oh, if I could just freeze that frame,
just live in that moment where it’s all the same
I’d bear the noise if you looked at me,
if you promised it would always be
I am not free, I cannot fly
I don’t believe in stars, or in the sky
