From the recording Be Where I Am
Lyrics
Love can wait
Just like any heartbeat can cave
To the currents of a moat around the castle
Where the princess, she lives
So long locked away
Her gossamer shell has gone brittle
As she speaks through the wall
Vibrations in her skull could make
Waves in the wake of your coma dream lullaby, and
When did our dreams become
Wrapped up so neatly?
I don’t think that we see through ourselves so clear
Big eyes glazed with condescension
Like I’m living in a different dimension
Love can wait
Just like any heartbeat can play
To the time of the flash or the thunder
And your lips spread with ease
They’re dripping with disease
I can only rise up or go under
I could be a man, or your mother
I could feel just like any other
I know you could be anyone but me
And that ring in my ear
As I stare down the mirror
I have never felt lonelier than when you’re here
Big eyes glazed with condescension
Like I’m living in a different dimension
Mirrored glances uncontrolled and uncontained
Moats forming figure eights in my veins
Circling light from my eyes to my brain
Reflection sings to me of much fairer games
Big eyes glazed with condescension
I can dream through your dissension
It’s the mother of invention
Like I’m living in a different dimension
