That ideal relationship just out of reach
The kind that all the songs and prophets preach
Have I just got scales in my eyes
Stopped seeing the best,the love in the guy
Has it just got layered in dust
Melded down with layers of rust
I assume that I know all there is to know
Stopped seeing the sparks and caring so
Have my expectations got in the way
That ideal relationship just out of reach
Maybe it’s there if I don’t overreach
Look at the whole
Search life on a scroll
Pull it apart
Maybe test, my treacherous heart
Get out the duster, scale the rust
Look hard at my lover, try or bust.
