Is it a problem if we'd arrange, in some way that's un-contrived Where I'm spending the night? Sorry I left you out on the ledge but suddenly my past arrived Of course she needed a light But there's a calmness now She leaned in to kiss me within your range I told her to mind her own (I knew she wanted to feel again) But as you and I walk over the bridge Under the moon that is filled to the brim I think maybe it's safe to say I'm a boy, are you a girl Who's only counting the seconds 'til Swollen lips meed in your bed? You are the needle, I'm the thread In your apartment, all that we say is painfully rational But it's there in your eyes That if we're just a group of atoms that clutch Fast to a rock that is tethered and hucked Around some unimprotant sun Then why do I shake from the subtlest touch? And quivering hands make me gesture and flush Oh let's try not to think so much It's a soft early light Spilling into the room Oh, the perilous fight Our arrangement is doomed Oh my penniless heart Oh my penniless heart
