Excuse my wary heart
and my broken, spinning mind.
I feel a clock wind down,
am I running out of time?
Do you see me there, pale and
transfixed beneath the moon,
covered by an iris of stars
that scream out to me and you?
I'm so thirsty, dear, and
it seems you have what I need:
a beautiful mind behind beautiful eyes
and emotions and a body all which
drive me fucking crazy.
Every time I get close,
why do you push away?
Every time I give up and dream,
why do you come back and
kick me awake?
This fucking hurts,
and you know that I want you,
but it seems you don't want me,
then it seems you do.
Excuse my wary heart
and my broken, spinning mind.
I feel a clock wind down,
and I'm only twenty-five.
I may live on forever, but
there's something dying inside
something on it's last leg
that I want you to revive.
Do you see me there, burned but
there beneath the blazing sun,
cradled by an iris of clouds
free and forever young?
I don't want to be cold, old and alone,
and I'm afraid I might need someone.
I don't want to be cold, old and alone,
sometimes I think you could be the one.
