You fell in love with me before you knew my body
You fell in love with me before you knew my face
You fell in love with me before I understood
the complexities of time and waste
You fell in love with me when I knew my body
You fell in love with me when I knew my face.
Before it was tangled, and torn up, and tightened, and thrown out,
Before I knew about fear and how the world's so damn unsafe,
no one gets away.
And I think that's something that we forget.
It's completely lost in the things you say.
And I know you better than most human beings
No one lives completely in night or day.
It is hard to see from the other side
just exactly what is missing
but when you climb out the box,
see over the top,
surprise, surprise,
it is a different kind of gazing.
I hope that Thomas is still going on.
I hope that [redacted] is wearing a skirt tonight.
I do not hope that you are staying strong, or tough, or big, or full of might.
And she told me that he was a sociopath,
but last night I saw tears in his eyes,
and I know what you're thinking,
that I'm just assuming,
but something tells me that I must be right.
Because this is INDISPUTABLY wrong.
And it has NOTHING to do with me.
Maybe I have trouble seeing SOMETIMES,
but my intuition is strong, usually.
And I've thought this over, and over, and over,
and I know what I am not anymore.
They say at this age, you get to choose your path,
but I have known this long before
and it just
makes me want to go back
to when we were voices and cartoons
when we picked our own names
and we could always change them
if we want to

Been listening to this album every week for five months now. Nothing spurs me into sincerity like this band. I really didnt know music could sound this inspiring and this beautiful at the same time. ofthesea
