Postcard #48

December 16th, 2015

It's been a long time since I believed in magic
I was told it's called OCD and I replaced it with logic
But I looked at my watch now, it was 11:11
And so I made a little wish and sent it up to heaven
Sometimes I get scared that you're no longer in love
And I go through these rituals to please the gods above

I jump over manholes, black holes, make circles 'round the flagpoles
Dancing across the labyrinth streets like I'm dancing over charcoal
Counting magpies in the tree, lucky numbers one, two, three
I know how it communicates with the letters on the license plates

I looked at my watch, it was 11:11
So I made a little wish and sent it up to heaven
Sometimes I get scared that you're no longer in love
And I go through these rituals to please the gods above

A leaf falls through the air
I catch it in my hands
Well, if anything adds to my odds
It's worth a chance, it's worth a chance
