You're waiting by the back door
A smile creeps across your face
But though our feasts come wrapped in plastic
Our brains are still monastic
The future can be a disappointing place

You'll curse the creator when I find you
You'll mouth the word of God
And after all your fingernails
Have quieted their incessant wails
You'll speak your truthful name in response

I want to know what love is
I want to have a simple feeling
I want to know you more than this

My daughter tore the pages from me
Before I read them all
Now all I think to write about
Is the rabble in my native town
Their teeth are sharp and they reek of alcohol

But I want to live a simple story
I want to cry from seeing your glory
I want your lips to part again
I want to hear your bliss

We float below the ceiling
It's such a simple feeling
Like a child faking sleep
I feel your bliss

I think I know what love is
It's such a simple feeling
I check it constantly
It's a perfect thing
