I will wait till you look me in the eye
this place of mine stays if you look away
we can speak of love, joy, and life
but like dogs we claim our space

all our fouls play true
time is out of tune

calling all hounds, hopes, and plays
those which give the end away
finding out what we think is real
when our egos reinvent the wheel

open up each jewel
this all plays out for fools

and my heart's not some tool
to give and give and give away

I wish gravity would reverse for just one day
we'd see that our world is such a small place
that's one way I wouldn't mind going out
our common ground shall be found in outer space

at first sight, accept my goodbye
I've canceled a history I'll never apply
I understand I maintain my place
and comfort is the soul's waste
