Immortals

You're on the stage and I feel like a fan
Who doesn't see a person but an admirable brand
That conflation is why I can't sleep
Is your kindness a service to me?
But if I take a minute I can come to recognize
My humble place within a universe that holds you inside of it
Would I also feel immortal if you touched me?

You're at the bar and I feel like a freak
Juxtaposing words against the actions I see
Knowing neither needs to mean anything
The future fills the spaces between
I'd like to think that I have a secret that is only mine
But an illusion is a normal thing to die inside of
Would I also feel immortal if you touched me?

You will have everything you'll ever need
Some confirmation that goodness succeeds
And in time I'll feel immortal when you aren't with me
