Cross & Tattoo

We first met at the danger scene The speaker fell to the floor in the middle of his scream I picked it up and we danced so hard At the old house turned into the bar I heard you speak, thought your words were strange You were fine all by yourself next the stage Eyeshadow matched your hair and I let you know And you stayed out late while we loaded the cars Took the haymaker walk he said it wasn't too far You sat beside me there, but not too close You were quick and funny We all laughed for a bit but the bands said bye I asked if you knew where'd you be sleeping that night You checked around and said probably your car I offered my couch, you said I wasn't sketchy so far To my home we went, I gave you pillow and sheet You mentioned cross and tattoo, and asked what it means I bared a glimpse of my heart, of failure and weakness And we stayed up late, maybe 6 am Just lost in ourselves, and what that meant You said if that's all, well then that's a yes You came to me close I've seen a thousand pretty faces, as yours sure is But to hear an echo of your soul, how could I resist You understood more than the mere words I spoke Our humbled failures did begin to show I resisted sleep, I had to hear more The physical but a glimmer of your aura Who are you And you stayed out late while we loaded the cars Took the haymaker walk he said it wasn't too far You sat beside me there, but not too close You were quick and funny And we stayed up late, maybe 6 am Just lost in ourselves, and what that meant You said if that's all, well then that's a yes You came to me close And we stayed out late
