motionSickness

There is nothing for
Which I'm responsible
Just this baggage I keep carrying on
As if I had someone
Ok, maybe there is a woman somewhere
Who's still thinking of me
Or a girl with coal black hair
Who's haunted in her dreams
But what they've seen
Well, it wasn't me
It was just some lie
They slept beside
Yeah, I kept this from them
But I can't keep this from you
So will you look for me
In that strange bright place
Where the statues bloom in the park
They don't need no rain
Cause how I ever got to you
I have no idea
It's like some secret door
Well, it just appeared
So, no matter what I do
From now on with my time
You will always stay here
In my mind
I am certain of this
And I am not certain of anything
So I want to get myself attached
To something bolted down
So these winds of circumstance
Won't keep blowing me around
From when I land
To when I leave
There is enough time
To sleep and sing
I keep running around
When all I want is to lay motionless

soon you'll be leaving your man

He always gets so mad
at things you'd laugh at
"Don't get so worked up," you'd say
But on the back deck
You admit that
You haven't felt much like laughing lately anyway
And so I say,
"That could change"
I notice how you waste no time
Making your way across the room
You leave a wake of tongues still waving after you
And it is no coincidence
Where you finally choose to stand
I know soon
you will be leaving your man
It's a sweet smile
And then a denial
Hey, you were just trying to be nice
But there is a meaning
To every fleeting
action you unconsciously decide
The clocks, they chime
Now it's time
I know you try and play it cool
But there are some thoughts you just can't hide
Only in your closest friends
Do you confide
The way you say you'll be seeing me
Oh, like it's so offhand
I guess soon
Soon, you'll be leaving your man
You stare at me so boldly now
You have no lack of confidence
It's just those lessons of subtlety you missed
I know you dream of saving me
Like I'm some plane that you could land
But when you fly
You will be leaving your man
