The moment I walked in I could feel that this was not another dead room It was alive a single heart beating and there you stood For once I could ignore The low frequency tension in the air I get the most claustrophobic feeling Looking in your endless eyes It’s where I want to live it’s who I want to be And if there’s a certain stutter in my speech, a detached step I hesitate to take It’s just me tripping over myself to heal your wounds so one of us can be complete The cobwebs are suddenly clear I’m left with no excuse There never was an excuse for me I am just so overcome by your simple honesty The Mongrel cat came home, Holding half a head proceeded to show it off to all his new found friends |
