I'll need some convincing before I sleep
With a new heart where you once were next to me
Ya you absence you're just my type
You feel cooler on warmer nights, alright
There's always a fallout
A sometimes subtle shift
Of light pouring through an orange sky
The same general object's a tiny bit different
Your anchor's a loose end
Boat untethered, with a dull knife in your hand
And even an Evergreen can get sick you see
And in the end, Kerosene still needs a spark to light up the scene
And antiquity is filled with little stones like you and me
Cracked and burdened with meaning like the Rock of Calvary
And I hear a whisper from right behind my wall
Tone of voice, inflection in word choice
Damn near identical
Say a bang for her back
It's one of two, a genius, a cynic
A short money mover, the most prescient act, ya
So look out to the garden
There's a good deal of unrest
Of marigolds repelling scores
Of invasive insects to bats and a quick d**h
So wild and so surprised
I'm an aphid and you're a carrot fly
And even an Evergreen can get sick you see
And in the end, Kerosene still needs a spark to light up the scene
And antiquity is filled with little stones like you and me
Cracked and burdened with meaning like the Rock of Calvary
