Say to You

I’m sitting in my sweat and I’m hoping that it’s over

All my windows growing dark as the year gets colder

Taking shots at what you mean from the other side

Turning over in my sleep when I see you clearly this time

Don’t you want to be around for what I have to say to you?

Don’t you want to keep an eye out while I keep it coming?

I’m so tired of myself in my own brain

Eating the same four meals and saying I’m satiated

I work out an acrostic, but I’m just placing words

Keeping cool, or I try to while my stomach melts

Don’t you wanna be around for what I have to say to you?

Once I can get it out from behind my teeth

Don’t you wanna be around for what I need to say to you?

Don’t run away with me, I’m coming after

Like a comet or a crushed heart

Candy wrapper in the front yard

Chew me up and spit me out

Keep it going, keep it up

Like I’m turning on the corner

I look over my shoulder

Is it you or is it someone else I don’t know

Don’t you wanna be around for what I’m working up to?

If I say it then it’s out there, but I know I have to

Don’t you wanna be around for what I have to say to you?
