I remember I wanted to tell you, "I love you," when I told you, "I like you" You said we could meet up again, up in Athens over the summer I remember I wanted to tell you when you sat in the back of that philosophy class But I couldn't bring myself to do it Because those three damn words ended my last three relationships So now we sit in the botanical gardens Waiting for the flowers to give me the oxygen To filter my lungs And go to my brain To give me the thoughts To ration the heart to ask you now I wanna give you a six finger handshake Not around your hand, but your body, if that makes sense I just want to see what we can make And if we can draw the most out from the less I wanna be friends I wanna be more than friends I wanna be brothers I wanna be your significant other Or maybe something more specific than that I want you to mold me however to your heart's content So I can be the clay on top of your pedestal And you can be my Patrick Swayze Though I know you don't get that reference yet (But soon you will) I was stuck in a hospital in Valdosta for twelve whole days I would've gotten out of there sooner if my Doc wasn't so fixated on drugging me up Instead of realizing what Asperger's was I left there with more problems than I came in with You called me the day right after I got out You had so much concern in your voice Turns out that was just the way you talked But in that moment you were also expressing concern My tongue and lips were all swollen And my body would just constantly stiffen Turns out, that was just a common reaction To the medication I blame it on the misdiagnosis, but oh well Oh well I remember I was on the verge of slurring all my words out in Blackbird's But you knew to be patient! And I appreciate you for that I appreciate you for a lot of other reasons But that is the one to which I will always return I wanna give you a six finger handshake Not around your hand but your bodice! If that makes sense I wanna give unto you more than I take Because you're a person deserving of that kind of love I wanna show you the world I wanna show the world you I wanna give you it all I wanna give you what's due Because your rabbit-like anxiety has haunted you for far too long You see the universe in amazing detail Perhaps a little too outstanding for you to handle But that's okay because I'll there to pick you up no matter what And I know we have issues of our own But we can work on them And get better together Together forever Forever unsevered And I know not everything's set in stone But we can do that when we're dead Because right now we're fluid And we don't care that our bones tell us otherwise As long as we're together I'm certain we'll make it to the other side I know that you're scared But I'll be there to protect you every time I wanna give you a six finger handshake Well it doesn't even need to make sense to us anymore We can dance to communicate and leave all our languages at the door We can make our own music, kudzu leaves all on the floor We can build our world, and still have things left to explore
