Walk Sideways

It is a parallel universe
And you did crawl out of your shell
This is why time doesn’t matter
Because you always loved me
And crabs walk sideways
And time doesn’t move forward
You shifted your weight
To one side
I was always here in the middle
Of this reality

I tell it to the pillow
I tell it to your hair
I tell it to your back
When you aren’t there
I tell it to my friends
I tell it to myself
And I know you know it well

Just throwing the idea out there to see where the
Ball bounces
You were skipping the largest stones
Over the shortest distance

So basically you’re saying it’ll take years to feel it
And yet I feel it shining through like morning light

I tell it to the pillow
I tell it to your hair
I tell it to your back
When you aren’t there
I tell it to my friends
I tell it to myself
And I know you know it well

Oh that light
And it's in me and it’s just dawn
It’s always the sun coming up
It’s never going down
I told you this
It’s consistent
It’s always been
Since the fireworks on the Fourth of July

I tell it to the pillow
I tell it to your hair
I tell it to your back
When you aren’t there
I tell it to my friends
I tell it to myself
And I know you know
I know you know

I tell it to the pillow
I tell it to your hair
I tell it to your back
When you aren’t there
I tell it to my friends
I tell it to myself
And I know you know
I know you know
I know you know
I know you know it well

I tell it to the pillow
I tell it to your hair
I tell it to your back
When you aren’t there
