The Second Shift -

Don’t ask me for advice

I’ll give it to you every time

Open up and let the forest fire

Destroy everything in sight

It’s not that I’m exceptional

I only want to speak aloud

Pull out all the tangled thoughts

And try to sort all them out somehow

I know, I know the key

It’s written in my own body

It’s hidden in my own body

From her to you and you to me

I’d like to estimate how many drown in compliments

Given like a consolation prize

That’s yours, you can be admired

Given the choice I’d press pause

And play it all back in reverse

And then I’d laugh at how curious

The mirror is

I know, I know the key

It’s written in my own body

It’s hidden in my own body

It’s written in my own body

I know, I know the key

It’s written in my own body

It’s hidden in my own body

From her to you and you to me
