This Is

The world begs to meet you 
The world knows it needs you 
I should have seen this coming 
This piece of me that's humming 
Colors of my house are red and wound and sweat and hollow 
This is 
Such an opportunity for me 
And the world wants to feed you 
It's on your side 
I'd jump just to please you 
And that is why 
I should have seen this coming 
This piece of me that's humming 
Colors of my house are grip and grin and sweat and wallow 
This is 
Such an opportunity for me 
And a man wants to meet you 
He's on your side 
He knows how to feed you 
And so he tries 
A cold slap to the head 
From the one who wants to steal my bread 
And the box inside me hums 
For the one who wants to feed my love 
And the box is humming soft and low 
So definite the echo 
Now it feels so low 
Now it feels so low 
Now you feel so low 
Now you feel so low 
This is 
Such an opportunity for me
