i look with arms crossed and an eyebrow pointing up
and i woke in this state so unlike myself
in these halls and in my dreams
i think things beyond comparing
it's a bridge that can't be crossed
it's like a love that won't be lost
it's a shirt that can't be worn
it's like a world that won't be torn
this feeling's a lie, it tricked my eyes
it makes me think the sky is ground
now i'm upside down
you can't rush wisdom
it always occurs an awkward verse
from your mouth
i know it's important to
experience both sides
it's a girl that turns you on
it's learning to say so long
it's a father who lets you know
it's a mother who let's you go
when will i find something that i can grasp
something that won't break when i hold it
because all these things are abstract
but can be worn down
and talked about over and over
i know i have bigger things to worry about
but i can't keep you off my mind
it's not my style to let it slide
it's not your fault
it's not your fault
it's a girl that turns you on
it's learning to say so long
it's a father who lets you know
it's a mother who lets you go
