On a Thought

Tap, tap, teasing, tantalizing, testing limits
Let me in, let me swim through the shine on your eyes, and

Now I'm squeezing tight
Ceasing every sight I could use
To drag the tap, drag your image away from my mind

Oh, because I shouldn't
Oh, because some lines you can't choose to draw
Oh, because I couldn't let it sink
Couldn't tell you how I've been
Sitting on a thought I shouldn't think

Logic stopped being reasonable, and
Now I can't find the first reason at all
And what's left is a feeling I choose not to name
Tied to paper it's harder to tame

Inside your eyes, I imagine a place I could stay
Just at night when I'm drifting away
Into nothing precisely concrete
Discrete floating cloud of heat

But I shouldn't
Oh, because some lines you can't choose to draw
Oh, because I couldn't let it sink
Couldn't tell you how I've been
Sitting on a thought I shouldn't think

Tap, tap, teasing, tantalizing, testing limits
I can't help, when it passes it makes my eyes shine, and

Though I'm squeezing tight
There can't be a sight I could use
To quiet the thought as it taps
Repair the line when it cracks
And hold out a hand for the cloud when it backs
Scared to see these words turn into facts

To finally drag your image away from my mind

You know that I shouldn't
You know that there's some lines that can't be redrawn
And I know that you wouldn't let it sink
If I showed you that I'm still
Sitting on a thought I

Shouldn't think
