Crack a joke
Whisper in my ear
Sweet nothings you hold dear
Light a smoke
Random thoughts
Keep flitting through my head
I watch the room instead
And start to choke
Woah, they’re talking in rhyme
My consciousness climbs
You pull me back as I start to peak
Forever watching over me
For heaven’s sake
I lead you here and there
Give you daily scares
And when I wake
At 3 a.m.
Your fingers through my hair
Becalm the raging air
Apply the brakes
Woah, I’m talking in rhyme
My consciousness climbs
You pull me back as I start to peak
Forever watching over me
Can’t say I’m right
Can’t say I’m wrong
I crave the madness of our song
Their feeding frenzy as they throng
At closing time where we belong
I’ll grab this future by the throat
Although the chances are remote
Lift you with me when I float
Raising higher with every note
Until I’m watching over me
Woah, I’m talking in rhyme
My consciousness climbs
You pull me back as I start to peak
Forever watching over me
