Compartmentalise

A love is made when two have grown
To make each other's presence known
Into the Earth and in the psyche

I found us in a waiting game
I made me proud and guilt the shame
I made a path but tread it lightly

I turned you to a human boy
I never knew there was a ploy
To strategically sympathise
Master of prioritising
You're gonna compartmentalise me in and out of your life

Watch while he turns on his speakers
As the sound becomes a beacon into the unknown
Watch as the waves of vibration
Anchor me but follow me into every room

He says I can't touch the dial
No control for me
Titanium teeth and resin eyes
Calculatedly decided
He's gonna compartmentalise me in and out of his life

You were the master of the sea
And I am a lady of water
Was this some kind of scientific experiment on me
A sculpture to be laid out on your ship
A piece of fiction
A fantasy

He took me up and made me ache
Then threw me back into a lake
He made me cry until it hurt me

The ones around me always knew
I'd never make it to his crew
An invitation over-pending

I gave him gifts of all the worlds
He cast me swine for all my pearls
He always had a half-track mind
My symphony too much for his kind

I've just been compartmentalised completely out of his life
I don't wanna be compartmentalised I wanna have a life
