Say We've Had a Fire

I tried to stay focused but it just went out of plan My mother would attribute this to my short attention span I wrote to a therapist I wrote to understand I wrote a poem for you and it got out of hand There's a part of me standing and you talk to it most These words are mostly boring but not really the worst There's a part of me leaking on your blundering floors and your words are very different when you speak to this loss So say we've had a fire Say we've had a fire I see that you see me and I see that you smile Because of you I learned to tell a whole new lie It's eating me up it's challenging worlds and it's the best thing I've seen since the bad guys won I don't want to see friends speak to anyone because if I speak I'll lie to everyone You went for a shake I went for a hug and left it there hanging like an untaken drug So say we've had a fire Say we've had a fire And it's fun how you know how to not fall apart how to live your life and still have your heart I lead a circus at night I lead a double life I want everything and nothing All at the same time There must be a name or two for this thing it's either a sin or some godless belief I try to become I try to dodge the worst and depending on the outcome I might feel remorse So say we've had a fire Say we've had a fire
