i've posted this before, elsewhere. but it's my theme song for the day.

dear i want to say
you paralyze my heart
i feel like a thousand trucks
all barreling
some loaded with sparks and some
with gasoline
ready to burn until
there's nothing left of me
and there's only so many tears
that i can bend to the things in my head
like i know your big smile
just means get away
and i'm so embarrassed by
the dumb shit i say
and you're wearing black and i'm
three shades of grey
and the wisdom of the ages is clear
i'm going to say what i think you'd like to hear
and i'm going to stand as tall and straight as i can
even though i feel like a worm in the sand
but i'm trying, i am i really am
so buy what you can with the change
love's made in you light
oh change is a rocky fault line
it's always getting deeper but
still crumbling at the same time
i'm not strange
i'm just out of my mind
dear i want to say
you paralyze my heart

you paralyze my heart
