I feel my body being pulled apart
And all my pieces blown like dust
And I got no choice but to laugh at it all
At the very least be nonplussed
I weep like an open wound
I saw like a violin
This is what happens
This is what happens
When I let you in
I feel my pieces being borne aloft
And my fingers touch the tips of your hair
I try to yoke you close to me
But you fly away like so much air
I can spin it any way I want
I can check into a loony bin
This is what happens
This is what happens
When I let you in
I feel my spirit out among the stars
As lonely as a scuttled thought
Your eyes, your crown, your brilliant mouth
Hurl me like a juggernaut
I gird myself for the great beyond
I snag myself on a safety pin
This is what happens
This is what happens
When I let you in
