Mercury’s in retrograde
And Irish people call a spade a spade
Coz you know that morbid humor
Isn’t gonna make it get you any sooner
And I’m poised between a perfect spin
And in my mind I’m dancing with him
On an empty street
Oh, how I cursed the stars that meet
Us on the street or on the bus
There was just that feeling of trust
As I let myself believe
And I watch you hide your hands up your sleeve
That morning in the Mall
Want to take a walk or shall
We just stare at each other across a mirage
And I draw lines across your visage
That will one day be a wrinkle in time
But you’ll never stop being fine
As I watch you live your life with someone else
You advise me it’s best to take care of my mental health
Coz you know stability is a wealth
So I smack the camera out of your hand
I will be grand
Just not knowing
Coz I’m not finished growing
Gardens in my mind
And they’re not well tended or left behind
They are veritably wild
And in my heart I’m still a child
And I scoff in the face
Of the rules that you chase
So go ahead, be normal
Address me in a tone that’s formal
Coz you don’t have the time
To watch my stellar shine
And maybe you were just afraid
Coz, you know, that “bitch”, she slayed
And all the lines that they encase
Won’t find you that dream you chase
Of 2.5 and a car
Don’t you ever wonder what we are
And reincarnation kinda resembles the setting sun
But do you think we could get it in one
Coz this axis is an endless spin
And Nirvana revealed itself to him
When I let him into my sphere
Now we are ever near
Like two orbiting souls
Planets ruled by the poles
But what is this non dual understanding
All I know is you were commanding
My attention when you suggested
That we go get arrested
Just for the hell of it
Who am I sharing my heart with?
But I can’t help the laugh that escapes
And not all superheroes wear capes
But you sure do
Could I kick it with you
In the summer of our age
I think I’m gonna need another page
To get this down
I won’t wear a gown
But in a t-shirt and jeans
I met the man of my dreams
