Plans

Cover
Our bodies need covering
There's actions we acted on
Before our thoughts had enough time

Ponder
Questions that keep hovering
Your light-hearted visits
Seem to weigh heavy on my mind

But don't look back on me
Though being ahead brings pity
I know you're a lot less guilty than you seem
But rest assured
The ground on which you stand will be shaken
Plans are always perfect when you make them

Lights off
We swim in the ocean
We're floating west
I'm not sure if those were the intentions
Somewhere, someone swears
"These numbers will win"
Then curses and swears when the numbers roll in

But don't look back on me
Though being ahead brings pity
I know you're a lot less guilty than you seem
But rest assured
The ground on which you stand will be shaken
Plans are always perfect when you make them

If every child became their dreams
And lovers remained married
And every flower bloomed perfectly
And you never grew away from me
Wouldn't that make it easy?

Wouldn't the stars align so clearly
If we could control the objects that we see
If what we hoped for
Was that we were controlling
