let you

I wanted someone to call me pop-tart but god forbid I be tawdry in a land of the divine
you just have mother teresa and hitler and everyone in between
so you can see how I was easily swayed
maybe I let you see the scars
maybe you couldn’t let me let you in
you saw my dreams and saw my flaws
you awoke in the night to hold me when I pushed you away
you always waited for the open invitation
I couldn’t let you let me in
we never underestimated the weirdos
our lives were empty and we were mad to fill it
come on, let’s go, I would wave my magic wand and POOF
there is our canyon
we scurry like wolves and
downplay the up-play
like everyone knew our business
we could do everything
we could bring back the heart of it all
beautiful aesthetics and peace and love and rock ‘n roll
we could have a food truck in the ground
and you would let me
swim naked in the water
while you overturn
your shadow
