Okay, wait So there is real life And then there's fantasy And somewhere in the middle There's synecdoche I get it, I think At least I think I see But still I wish that you could better explain it to me I'm caught up in coincidence Lost in metonymy Every metaphor I come across An extension of my being I'm drowning But swimming I'm so lost But winning A battle that I can't define Rooted in believing A date with fate I can't avoid But have no business seeing I remember telling my best friend of how I once saw god He clammed up and got real quiet Waiting for me to go on But there was no more to say And on that day I knew what it meant to be free It was frightening And lonely And deeply affected me My life ever since has been a spiritual tragedy I don't know how to fix it I'm not sure what to think It scares the **** out of people when I tell them That God is all I see
