I see you Brown haired, bubbly, bursting With energy that threatens to come loose Like a champagne cork On the edge of an overflowing bottle It has always remained a mystery to me How these bright-eyed beauties Are as unknown to us As we are to ourselves She doesn’t truly know herself, you see And leaves her sweet-smelling hair To the task Of keeping you away From the treasure in her mind There is never a proper description for her So “high maintenance” is used to fill the void Produced by the simplest of minds As an excuse for their lack of imagination Is she difficult? Desirable? Or simply distant? There is no answer to the wondrous question So her heart will stay locked up forever. She wouldn’t have it any other way.

Ode to the Dancing Queen
I see you Brown haired, bubbly, bursting With energy that threatens to come loose Like a champagne cork On the edge of an overflowing bottle It has always remained a mystery to me How these bright-eyed beauties Are as unknown to us As we are to ourselves She doesn’t truly know herself, you see And leaves her sweet-smelling hair To the task Of keeping you away From the treasure in her mind There is never a proper description for her So “high maintenance” is used to fill the void Produced by the simplest of minds As an excuse for their lack of imagination Is she difficult? Desirable? Or simply distant? There is no answer to the wondrous question So her heart will stay locked up forever. She wouldn’t have it any other way.
