The Crash

We were manic at the same time Got sushi and a beer at four in the afternoon Danced all through campus to music in our minds And thought about the crash we'd both fall victim to I don't want to crash without you I just heard a song that made me cry The first real cry I've had in about a year This woman sang about feeling like she's underwater And I related to that muted kind of atmosphere She sang about a friend of hers who had died And I imagined myself singing for you Isn't it scary not to be scared of death? Does it mean there's nothing here we're really tethered to? I don't want to crash I feel like I might Without you Don't you dare If you do, I will have to face the fact that You're what I was tethered to Or the idea of you Don't you dare
