I Close My Eyes for a Second and Pretend It's Me You Want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant... Mr. Beckett had it right when he said "Love me, or leave me, or rip me apart." I'm wa(it)ding in the water. Tie the anchor around my ankle or throw me the lifesaver. Anything for you to glance over the hull. Wouldn't it be nice? We can hide in the daylight. The moonlight exposes us for what we are. The sun sees me disinterested. The moon sees me desperate. Cue the guitars and the trumpets. You're like spring. A fool might wonder if you're ever really there, but a voyeur always knows. Ivy grows in your eyes. You leave flowers sprouting in your trail. Sprightly as a twitching rabbit's nose, begging to act, but afraid of attention. I always notice. See you tonight with an empty bed and a crowded head.
