I keep it right here
In touch but not near
The threat keeps me moving
On toes with my fear
Your reason is clearest
The emotions controlled
My drive here is fiercest but it too is temporal
To the slightest degree
My balance is off
My mind's a new me
And relativity's lost
Too close brings defeat
Sickness need not fight
My might stares beyond you, come on in we're locked in fright!
My nerves have all passed out
Overwhelmed by a greater force
They know it will beat them
Kill me now, the waiting's worse
It's these times when my sheets
Stay dampened for weeks
And my shoulders still break out
And my sneakers still shake
And it's hard to get away
To acknowledge makes it stay
And my wallowing builds
To my wallowing state
But on the way down
The pressure is great
The snap of the panic
Can send me like light
Below where I'm stable
Beyond where I'm right
Romance here is strongest
I am brave at least tonight
The urge has been pushed back
So far I am bold
I'm blind to its warnings and I can stand like I'm told
Too far makes me shallow
No scare to keep me straight
I'm selfless with glory
I'm an idiot when I've lost sight
It's these times I make promises
To be delivered while I sleep
I'm the man that the book made
The stupid zealot of the week
My bouts with pouncing!
My stints with might!
My bouts with pouncing!
My stints with might!
My bouts with pouncing!
My stints with might!
My bouts with pouncing!
My stints with might!
