If for Just a Second

I'm not saying my shrink's an impostor
But he's relaying advice from cat posters
Then again, my material's stubborn
Since when have I taken this loner mind
And given it to the kind it's longed to find

Now this ain't the time or place for some guy to plead his case
You're minding your own business after all
But these last few weeks were hell, so I'll pretend to be neutral
While you're a poster on my post-teenage mind's wall
I'm sorry how that would come off

But if for just a second
In your eyes, I find content
I'll revel in the moment
Even if I never see you again

You bumped my arm at the edge of the mosh pit
A quick "sorry" & I'm looking to match wits
Best case scenario, we fall
Worst case, it's okay, she'll fade into the crowd at the festival
When the situation's framed
The adrenaline remains
The only thing I've gained

And if for just a second
In your eyes, I find content
I'll revel in the moment
Even if I never see you again

You summon all my sins
Committed nowhere but within
They meet up at the hole of reticence
Each thought's a different tool
But digging at the same damn fool
Ignoring what's been building next to it

Time to push aside the threat that I mold before it sets
You're minding your own demons after all
Internalize the melodrama, channel it into a comma
Separate the past lines for this call
From now on, those are only occasional

And if for just a second
In your eyes, I find content
I'll revel in the moment
Even if I never see you again

And if for just a second
I feel you're Heaven sent
I'll field all these emotions
Just in case I never see you again
