In This Perilous World In this perilous world I'm tethered to a sweet girl who doesn't know the fragility of me but she reminds me of a buzzing bee stinging my skin as she tries to bring out the best in me The moon is behind the clouds, so I can't see it but try and I can feel it stand long enough in one place and eventually I'll see Luna's smiling face and it'll make my sad heart race the path to the finish line is a tearful trace of you I wonder for the good of my soul is there any emotions I can control I just scare the trust out of me she just stares deep into the doubts in me Like a button on a shirt buttoned wrong like dead silence in the place of a song none of these things, like me, seem to belong oh the good in me, where has it gone? She sleeps in a shimmering ball carving a place for me to fall she leaves her heart on display nearly perfect in every way I'm nearly there, but for the fractured, finite love in me she's nearly aware of the depths of her stormy sea reaching its arms out for me In this perilous world I try to clear the weather for my girl but I doubt the strength in me but she's just like a willow tree she keeps the rain from fading away the best in me Look there goes a seagull flying free shot through heaven, like her love is to me isn't it something to see? isn't it, someday, something to be?
