Opia

Light cigarette smoke through the window
You caught me by the nose
I shoot a glance you catch the bullet
To feed your gun-powdered soul
I’m out of place, so out of character
To hide behind a
Distant stare away from you but
You aren’t looking away from me
My father told me there’s a place and time for everything well
It’s late afternoon and you’re looking beautiful right here
I know we just met but
For the first time in a long time
I really feel like I can see somebody’s eyes
You have no idea
How long I’ve been looking down
Fighting off question marks with
Weapons of depression and
The sound of white noise in my ears
Blocking out the world to save my fears
Keeping me in one place
Baby take my hands, pull me away
My father told me there’s a place and time for everything well
It’s late afternoon and you’re looking beautiful right here
I know we just met but
For the first time in a long time
I really feel like I can see somebody’s eyes
