Shimmer

four feet for feeding me
I'll keep the bleeding knees
could you shimmer in this room?
behind the curtains, gloom

so what do you think?
God, I wish I wouldn't mind tonight
but we were so high
you know it's not right
but it was all we were

four feet for feeding myself
fly now, boy, out of the shell
I need and I'm all about
me, myself and I right now
but how come you tell it to me?

to arms that could not catch you fall
to ears that heard but
did not listen you spoke

so what do you think cuz
I wouldn't mind tonight
we were so high
you know it's not right
but it's all we were
so what do you think?
God, I wish I wouldn't mind tonight
you can start shining, please
start shining right here
