    Be Together

    by: Bubblemath

    All my senses stumble and sway as they tumble away
    I don't know where I'm going, what's worth knowing
    And all of my brain blows out through my nose when you're smiling
    And still I'm piling up the tears through the years, clogging up my
    I can see you looking at me, baby, why can't we ever be together?
    What's the big deal? And you know how I feel
    You're filling me with splinters, lonely winters
    Without you I nose dive, barely alive, still I'm flying
    You're satisfying every need, let me feed, I'll be gaining
    Wait forever, that's what I'll do, baby, why don't you want me, too?
    When you see the way that I seethe, as I struggle to breathe
    You're bound to pay attention, did I mention you give me a love rash?
    Each time I crash through your hurdle, I cramp and curdle
    Bitter blood, clammy crud, fuse my feet and
    Back together, that's what I want, even so you taunt, as you
    Haunt me with your poisoned parade, now your poised to invade
    My kingdom, and it's shrinking, now I'm thinking
    Of you as my homeland, at your command, you're a nation
    Of inspiration, dripping down as I drown, still I drink it
    Incoherence, nothing is wrong, knowing we belong keeps me strong
    Listen, Lame-o, to what I say, won't you wither away?
    Shut up and pay attention when I mention so casually
    We will never be together, untie me from your tether
    Let me go, make it so I don't ever
    Have to see or hear you again, or your why or when, now and
    Then you've got to learn how to deal, I don't care how you feel
    I once was filled with summers, now they're bummers
    Without you I'd swan dive, free and alive, I'd be flying
    So sayisfying, so well fed, but instead, I'm just losing
    Wait until you please pass me by, and I wonder
