lyrics

Fiction

I
Made up a story
That I couldn’t stop telling
I liked living inside it outloud.

You
You’re not really my lover but I’ve read
You cover to cover so many times
It starts to feel like real life.

And there’s an inch
Between our hands
And I’m hyper aware of the electric current as a live wire
A magnet, a fire yes-yes I felt it conspire that charge in the air.

You got my attention
I just like looking at the pictures
I just like folding down the corner of a page to mark our place
In the middle of a fiction that I haven’t written yet.

But I’ll bind
Each blank page
So as just to wither with age
Watch it turn yellow and brittle.

And you’ll find
Pages of leaves pressed inside
So many that they stressed the spine
But at least they retain some of the color.

I
Made up a story
That I couldn’t stop telling
I liked living inside it outloud
Yes, outloud…

You got my attention
I just like looking at the pictures
I just like folding down the corner of a page to mark our place
In the middle of a fiction that I haven’t written yet.
