Phases

I took one look and I knew I was wrong
I had the words in my head
But I just couldn't connect the dots
Spit them out on the pavement as we walked along

Next I'm in a phase
this game of chasing right words to say
Oh, I'm a fake
She can tell
I'm just aching to say it

This matrix has me in a daze
Your face elated

Conversation's next step
We're in phases

This one's two
Fellowship and it grew
Into a tree, blossomed
And the birds of the air
Can nest in the shade
Phases

Oh, I'm going through phases
Going through phases

Three
I'm talking with you late at night
Sharing my darkest
Walking next to a parked car
Rusted out

Left to the elements
Go figure
It's a testament
I'm a testament
You were Heaven-sent

Praise God
I'm now downtown
Staring at the silhouettes
Of the buildings
Across the federal highway

Catching glances from the neighbor
He's a recluse
With a Civic, Nineteen Ninety
Maybe Later

That cat was using asphalt shingles as wall paper

Stances
Just a phase
Now we're moving on
Living for the weekend

And our love is strong
We're looking up
Now Grandpa's gone in a minute

It seems like just yesterday
I was watching him across the street
Him telling me
Son you need a haircut

Life goes by fast
I'm elated
Stayin away from the social media
Keeps me from getting jaded

Remember who I am
As I'm passing through
These phases on my way

Create
Scenes fade
Lights out
New Phase
