There's a graceful dance above me   From the sun reflecting in   Off the cars that dance below   Each with their own story within   And the dance moves they remind me   Of the times that I've walked in   To a room and left with nothing   Except the fear to walk back in      So I'll stay safe from my vantage   On occasion I'll peer in   You'll grow up out of the corner of my eyes   Right next to him   You'll need help you'll need attention   You're a captivated whim   But I'm a coward prone to quitting   I just make sure never to begin      The gunpowder between my teeth   Lets me know that   I've come clean   It should be easy saying goodbye   Since you won't be   Looking at, me      I can see you through a window   But the cracks keep you a blur   There's a victim in this story   I wish to god that it was her   Well I know I've your recognition   It's of it's nature I'm not sure   If I could ever push this question   I'd shut my ears for the answer      So I'll stay safe from my vantage   On occasion I'll peer in   You'll grow up out of the corner of my eyes   Right next to him   You'll need help you'll need attention   You're a captivated whim   But I'm a coward prone to quitting   I just make sure never to begin      The gunpowder between my teeth   Lets me know that   I've come clean   It should be easy saying goodbye   Since you won't be   Looking at, me      The gunpowder between my teeth   Lets me know that   I've come clean   It should be easy saying goodbye   Since you won't be   Looking at, me (2X)
