I'm a captain you're a pirate
+
I'm a stewardess you're the high-jacker
+
You're the man I'm the child
+
Back and fourth the nights swings
+
On the wrong side of history
+
Waking up as anybody
+
The legacies of centuries
+
Mix in our dreams
+
My parents were hippies I joined the police
+
Growing up atheist now I believe
+
The distance of a lifeline stretched around my time
+
Runs one-hundred eighty degrees
+
I live for feelings I remain mute
+
Communicating with an instrument carved from wood
+
Falling for people I become allergic to
+
Yearning for what makes me hurt
+
I didn't want children so I teach them instead
+
Looking out into a darkness holding onto threads
+
I keep looking for the same thing in other people
+
Nothing I want ever makes sense
+
