The Bark Of The Tree

How do people get like that, is it believing that the age you are 
Is anything more than revolutions around a star
And I may be thirty three
But I’ve never been more free
As they put handcuffs on me
And tell me to preserve my dignity
If I want to shine
But I’m self effulgent and love is mine
Though you wouldn’t know it from my visage
Don’t feel bad
It isn’t all your fault
I kicked you out of the vault
After letting the key slip into your hand
And now I demand
That you break like a wave upon my shore
If you want me to love you more
But it’s just like listening to the scene
She wakes her own dream
Up from where it lay
And I don’t get a say
About the perforate you opened
And something is hoping
In what you never were to me
I take a moment and I just be
