The secret language we speak 
You make me go weak 
And I can read your mind
You have always been left behind 
And your pouring like water over me
Somehow it feels like being set free
As I watch your gaze flash
Like I’ve got cash
And I’m kind of bewildered but it’s nice
Did you not see me look twice
As you gaze towards the front of the bus
And I don’t know why I trust
You with my life
I see us being man and wife
I guess that’s the difference between the genders
And the difference between what one remembers 
I saw you throw me against the screen
That day we met in the dream 
Just down by Supermac’s 
And there is nothing either of us lacks
I felt my heart pound
I could’ve sworn you would hear the sound
As it thudded against the inside of my chest
And I against the one who loved me best
In secret we walk 
Til I found out you talk 
With another lady, another girl 
So I snap the locket shut on that world 
And you gasp from the break 
I only did it for your sake
For how can you split yourself in two
And love women more than yourself in blue
And my red burns like fire
And I tire 
Of your profanity
I want someone who will be real with me 
And express how he feels 
Not undress like he steals
The moment from another tree
I am no apple thief and if you’re talking to me
You must take the bite yourself 
Because I am no wealth
To be plundered, lost
If I mean you then there is no cost
To what you mean to do
And you must’ve known I meant you
When I looked your way
You don’t have anything to say
You just stutter the silence
And a form of violence
Takes you over 
And I didn’t know her
All that well
I could just see the hell
You left behind 
When you left her out of her mind
With worry and fear
And a tear
May have escaped her eye
But still she did not die
And was a shade of cool
That I admired in school
With her A1 in English
The only one who challenged me with relish
In her green and blue
(I think she may have gotten that from you)
And she would always say hi to me 
Unlike some people I’ve since set free
So, babe, what do you say
How about we do not let truth get in the way
I raise my brows
And he allows
That infraction
Like I accept his inaction
And we burst into laughing shapes
I don’t know how it escapes 
My solid steel 
But our love is real
If only in the fifth dimension
For you are an extension 
Of all I want to be
And, honey, I’ve been set free
And want to dynamite that fuse
If you give me power to choose
That path for you
And, fuck it, ask her too
I’m not being miserly
But when it is just you and me 
We can be the business type
And set the world right
Again 
If you will reveal the pen
You gave me to write
And it has brought me to a height 
That I cannot accurately encompass in words
Just, it’s the best thing I’ve ever heard
As you hold me with your eyes
And in all of our tries 
We have found
Stillness in the lack of sound!
