Perfect Plank

I'm just not ready for this conversation
I do much better on a take home test
And when you dwell upon my well of reservation
You're like a butterfly, a pretty pest

This is more work than it looks like
This is more than sex and talk
Sometimes you close your eyes before the flight
And you're the perfect plank for me to walk

Don't do that thing where you can rip apart my insides
'Cause that's a power I gave to you in faith
I sure don't need another bone-filled closet
Don't need another woman that I love to hate

This is more work than it looks like
This is more than sex and talk
This is something I tried to fight
But you're the perfect plank for me to walk

To walk...

I guess it's true that I still keep you in some darkness
There are some places I must go by myself
You do it too you know, you're never in my harness
You should be glad sometimes that I'm somebody else

This is more work than it looks like
This is more than sex and talk
Sometimes you close your eyes before the flight
And you're the perfect plank for me to walk

This is more work than it looks like
This is more than sex and talk
This was something I tried to fight
But you're the perfect plank for me to walk
