I was always good with directions
And even better with maps
But there was no way to read your mind
Without getting myself trapped

But I tried and tried
To simply open your skull
But I couldn't read anything
As if your pencil was dull

I tried finding a key
Or a way to read your mind
But there were no maps in sight
Did you leave them all behind?

I wondered for days and days
If there was a way to get in
But opening your skull was wrong
Entering your mind a sin

I guess I just wasn't the person
I didn't have the right
And every time I reached for the ****
The door went out of sight

I looked around and asked around
Searching for the key
But nobody gave me the answer
Nobody except for me

I knew why you wouldn't open
It was because of who you were
Because opening your mind was difficult
Your memories were better a blur

So I never tried again
To get into that skull of yours
But once I found your answer
I had the key for the other doors

Every time I wrote on your skin
Each letter kept disappearing
One after the other
Until there was no mark
Made by me
But one day
At the base of your neck
I saw the date
7/23/11
And 27 Club
And I reminded myself
That I will never be
Amy
To you

O.K. here we are
Both drowning in an ocean
Because you can't swim

Eternally trapped
In the soul of your eyes
They are the truth that has mapped
The rest of my life

Both our hearts
Have been crowned king and queen
Because of all the love that surrounds
You and me

Never before
Have I felt this feeling
Brought by a force
Revealing

The truth you possess
The truth was engraved
I am no longer arrested
In that lonely cave
And I have to confess
That for days and days
I dreamt you caressed me
It is you I crave
