Sometimes I imagine Peeling away the defenses you hide behind Like plucking the petals from a flower I want to see what's hidden underneath Let me go on drives with you at 2 am Listening to a radio station clouded with static Let me ask you questions About your childhood, your hopes for the future, Your thoughts and opinions on everything From religion and politics to tv sitcoms and pop music I want to read you cover to cover like my favorite book And when I'm done I want the floor of my car To be littered with flower petals
