Even if I were to study Kinesiology, it couldn't give me the slightest hint as to why you move, the way you do. I could listen to a sub woofer's bass, and it still couldn't give me a trace of the things that make you feel alive. And even with scissors, I could never cut out from a cloth just why you are the way you are. The patch cord that you play with amps up the sounds I hear, and yet I could not ever hear a single tear. To me you are a subway station, busying about, seeing me there but not seeing me clear A small blur, in the corner of your eye To you, I am there then gone again But to ignore you? I couldn't even pretend.

A Lonely Subway Station
Even if I were to study Kinesiology, it couldn't give me the slightest hint as to why you move, the way you do. I could listen to a sub woofer's bass, and it still couldn't give me a trace of the things that make you feel alive. And even with scissors, I could never cut out from a cloth just why you are the way you are. The patch cord that you play with amps up the sounds I hear, and yet I could not ever hear a single tear. To me you are a subway station, busying about, seeing me there but not seeing me clear A small blur, in the corner of your eye To you, I am there then gone again But to ignore you? I couldn't even pretend.
