Eternal Balance

I spent a whole summer looking at you from afar
Talked to my friends through a screen, watched the planes cross the sky
Visions of Mary and me passing out in the park
While David sings love songs to you as you laugh and walk on

I vaguely remember the feeling of letting it show
Laced up my boots ripped my jeans and then let it all go

Way past the shadows and through the night into abyss
(Sat like a Buddha when I rode the subway downtown)
There’s you and me meeting at the Eternal Balance
(Memories slipping from my subconscious to my dreams)
Mom’s on the front lawn building a nativity scene
(Sharing a drink and a laugh at Etеrnal Balance)
