I'll keep this one to myself Leave the rest of the world to cliché Try and fail to put into words What I go through every day All the obstacles could wash up on the beach in September Talk of life and love and ambitions for nothing in particular If I could define or put into words I hope Oxford omits us entirely No one else should know or understand Actions speak louder than all the rest If it's between you and any other adjective Just so you know, for me there's no contest I'll write essays of explanation Mutter dates and times and phrases in futility You're a pa**ionate example that I am learning how to handle patiently We draw our lines, respectable But New York makes it difficult I'll brave the unknown for you today I've been paid lip service But I'll stick to what's apparent If you keep trying then I'll keep staying here
