There's a light in your eyes
Inherent vice
That gets my skin
Quivering like a baby
Taking a breath of this cold world in
Which can be over and
Underwhelming
Unforgiving
Existential
Like the shroud of touring
Whatever fire
Fuels you within
Oh, I hope it never
Bleeds into bitterness
Like driving on the 10 west
It's the way you can commandeer a room
Like a sensual caress can teach a dolphin English
Or maybe it's something more pedestrian
And I'm blind to it
You make my head
Spin around like loaded dice
Every time you roll into view
You make the years behind us
Disappear like melted ice
Every time you roll into view
I am yours and you are mine
Born an accidental tourist
With a de-magnetized moral compass
Easy prey for dark haired gypsies
Who dazzle me with physics
Wallop me with rain sticks
Will you be my umbrella
And overwhelm me
All consuming
Sexistential
To the point of bruising
Whatever fire fuels us within
Oh, I hope it never burns into bitterness
You make my head
Spin around like loaded dice
Every time you roll into view
You make the years behind us
Disappear like melted ice
Every time you roll into view
I am yours and you are mine
If I'm questioned under duress
Tortured and manacled, I won't confess
How many licks it takes me to get
To the center of your affection
Feed me to feral dogs in the street
Whip me with chains and concrete my feet
Drop me at sea and I'll smile as I sink
I'll never betray who you are
There's a light in your eyes
Penetrates, shines right inside me
To see not who I am right now,
But the man who I've always struggled to be
Which can be over and
Underwhelming
Unforgiving
Existential
Self-destruction
Whatever fire fuels you within
Oh I hope it consumes me before it ends
Driving on the 10 west
