24 Is Yours

Just the other night
Or the year before that
You saw me so clearly
Dancing upon the damp landscapes

Chemicals instead of presents
To find the right shade
Or at least a glade
Where the air could change color

I was aware of the looming boredom
And always am
That was the last time
I waited for a glance

I've used these same glasses
To find it before
Deep in the halls
It dissolved into a painting too familiar

So I set your hair on fire
Even though really
I wanted you to follow me
All the way down

I was aware of the looming boredom
And always am
Really that was the last time
I waited for a glance

I hardly believe in family
Or in coming through
But I thought that dress
Looked lovely on you
