You're the Good Things

You're an island in a sea of bullshit
And I never want to leave
But do we misconceive?
You're the icing on my ration cake
'Cuz you're strange but never fake
Could this be our escape?

We are angry and frightened
But the burden is lightened
When we're talking on the phone
Or rocking to the tone of not being alone, love
Don't want to ask too much of you
Don't always follow through, follow through
Don't always follow through

You're a short walk on a long pier
'Cuz there's so much more here to explore, dear
Am I shifting the right gear?
You're a dandelion seed flying through smog
And I'm whining like a dog
How do you put up with me?

We are angry and frightened
But the burden is lightened
When we're talking on the phone
Or rocking to the tone of not being alone, love
Don't want to ask too much of you
We're so fed up with hollow cues
Don't always follow through, follow through
