Been listening to too much Kimya Dawson...

You think I'm crazy, you think I'm insane,
Cuz I found Atlantis and dance in the rain.
And once you've known me, you won't be the same,
Cuz I made you rethink every rule you once made.
Admit that I scared you, that I was too fast,
That I was five years ahead while you were stuck in the past.
And once you were under, you almost; at long last;
Let go of the memories that were holding you back.
You saw life different, through blue listless eyes
And your jaded decorum was just a disguise
That I almost had you, when you realized
You were reconsidering the way you lived life.
You're scared to be happy, afraid to be healed,
Don't know what to do if this pain you can't feel,
The idea of eden seems almost unreal
And you refuse to be held tight by arms made of steel
That will never let go, and will keep you so safe,
Will force you away into a new hiding place
Where it is possible to travel through space,
And you would have loved it, I saw on your face.
But your pain is your comfort, your solice, your rock
Your edge is the landing you hit when you drop,
How ironic that I am the "walking paradox"
When you are the one whose start button says "stop"- ASH 2008
