You Want Me

Why have you been
Lost in this confusion?
The voices and the place
There, you can see, I’m
Not just a delusion
A self from inner space
Embers fall, a gentle rain
Fires swarm and winding lakes
Tapers high and crawling snakes
Two moons full above
Eyes that only watch and wait
But now it’s all finally over
You’re diving from the sky
You breathe my air, love
Legs down and I reach
Floating in my smoke
Arms spread and we meet
Red-hot and tossing now
Launching and dodging
Swamping and spawning now
Wary, no
You’re not me
You want me, you want me
You want me
Want me, want me
Stop wondering, is this all in your mind
A blazing wave curls
A burst and it’s gone
Stop wondering, is this all in your mind
Flames in a throng
Blue lake, hurry on
In every blast and whisper
The one you love is there
Her presence in each cinder
That’s soaring through the air
Stop wondering, is this all in your mind
Ravenous maw
A beast made of bronze
Stop wondering, is this all in your mind
Blue fireball
Gold flows up a wall
Towers and waves
Are you fire or clay?
Why don’t you stay
Are you fire or clay?
Why don’t you stay
You’re not me, not me
You want me
No, no, you’re not me
You want me, you want me
Towers and waves
Why don’t you stay
We’ve waited all this time
