I am not a special moment I am not ground hog's day I am not a solar eclipse Or a sky full of shooting starts I am not 11:11 I am something else
I am a quiet back street In early afternoon I'm pavement you've walked over A thousand times I'm an inner city courtyard Behind some fast food joint Rose brick walls and a cherry tree
I'm your daily commute I'm the pattern of the tiles On your childhood bathroom wall I'm the scars you trace unconsciously Scars from scabbed knees I am rolling over in your sleep I'm the goosebumps you get From your second favourite movie I'm frozen peas
I am a blank sky I am old sheets I am chapstick and spare house keys I'm the little statue in your front yard On a partly cloudy afternoon I'm a moment with your head back Chewing gum in your car Sitting alone in a Target parking lot I'm the days between seeing your friends I'm the scent of your shampoo The sound of rain outside your first lover's room I'm your lukewarm nights, your easier goodbyes I'm white lies
I'm 4:23 PM drinking soda By the window, on your back porch I'm the dreams you had when you were three years old The things you don't even remember anymore I'm crickets On a late summer night I'm the tick of lofi music Humming over your headphones I'm everything you stand for
