i know a hundred times better

than to wear my heart

like a button or a safety pin

for you.

i know better than to send you links

to words i think

but when you ask me,

i'll be honest,

like i've always been with you....

and that would be to say that

i could listen to you speak for days,

i could listen to your thoughts for hours....

but i don't wanna be another one of those

mushy girls that i despise,

the ones that get up early to don their asspants

and their elevator sandals...

no i am more than

those cookie cutter girls,

same hair same face....

if you've seen one ass, you've seen 'em all....

no, i don't wanna judge,

but i've gotta believe i'm deeper than that,

and i'll share the bits and pieces

as willingly as you like,

but i'm not gonna wear my heart like a

punkrock button or a safety pin...

there's a history here and

i'm told history repeats itself...

there's too much made of glass

in this china shop soul...

there's too much to knock over

if you don't think before you act....

there's too damned much at stake and

i'm never any good at this;

i'm never sure, i'm never sure....

but you've got blue eyes

and you've got your pipe...

and you aren't afraid of anything...

its so intriguing that i can't make my thoughts flush you,

but i can't wear my heart

like a ralph nader button

for everyone to see

just yet.
