adam and eve

Just some lyrics that seemed to stick with me today....

"....you're trying to find a reason

why you have to leave

but i know its cuz you think you're adam

and you think i am eve.

you rhapsodize about beauty

and my eyes glaze

everything i love is ugly

i mean really, you would be amazed

just do me a favor

it's the least that you can do

just don't treat me like I am 

something that happened to you

i am truly sorry about all this

you put a tiny pin prick

in my big red balloon

and as i slowly start to exhale

thats when you leave the room

i did not design this game

i did not name the stakes

i just happen to like apples

and i'm not afraid of snakes.

i am truly sorry about all this

i envy your ignorance

i hear that its bliss

so i let go the ratio

of things said to things heard

as i leave you to your garden

and the beauty you preferred

and i wonder what of this

will have meaning for you

when you've left it all behind

i guess i'll even wonder

if you meant it

at the time."
