i’m a freshman criminal that disregards all things biblical
you play principal as i stay invisible
always unconditional, i play fool, you play you
just a god, walking the ocean, playing with stars that aren’t his
while i hang around bars hoping i might bump into him
i freak, at my knees, not you
eleven, eleven, i plead, it’s you i can’t see
we run parallel, never seeing another
i stay afar where as you move without regard
all the years, the stairs, the wars in my mind
keep you at the door, while i lie on the floor
wondering if i could’ve kept you at least once more
i walk, move, shake with earthquakes
it’s you i wake for, it’s you i sleep for
i stand at the door, wondering whether to open or leave shut
and kiss you goodbye so this world war is no more
