Drawing meaning from the unexpected,
|
A sign that cannot be denied.
|
A portrait of our everlasting expressions,
|
And the distance between us, side by side.
|
Nearing the end of this long discussion,
|
Still struggling for what more to say,
|
A man of words trying to argue his point,
|
With someone, who can afford to walk away.
|
This conflict of interest,
|
Of whether to act and indulge,
|
Or risk waiting for the greater gain,
|
That may never come.
|
I'm always pushing my luck,
|
for nothing is ever good enough.
|
While you strive to protect,
|
what you already have for nothing will ever be as good as it was.
|
(clean)
|
A look held too long, or maybe not long enough,
|
in the perfect setting which complicates us.
|
While we await the inevitable end,
|
We enjoy the inevitable events.
|
For everyday that passes we lessen the risk.
|
For everyday that passes makes much more sense.
|
While we await the inevitable end,
|
We enjoy the inevitable events.
|
And now...a new tension,
|
This one of silence...
|
A late morning gaze out of the window,
|
from inside a cold apartment.
|
We look out, we look away,
|
Anywhere but at each other.
