i’ve already forgotten
what you’ve been saying
because all i’m thinking about is
maybe you’re aware of it
maybe it’s visible in my eyes
i look like i’m paying attention
to what you’re saying
but little did you know
i’m only doing it
out of strategy
out of strategic positioning
because all i want to do
is sit by your side
and stay silent together
you look like a zombie
skeleton under those dim bureaucratic lights
and your voice is cracking and mine too
we ain’t slept for days
but we mo’ good lookin’ than ever
because all i want to do right now
is sit by your side not in front like this
and stay silent together for 5minutes
and then
i want to throw your fucking
pen and chair out the window
destroy all those fancy documents
and while they burn
we’ll take a walk outside
it’s such a beautiful night
because all i want to do right now
is tell you how you are so beautiful
and talk about some other subject
under the street lights
because all i’m looking at right now
is how your hair goes up like a fountain
and the folks are drinking from it
they are drinking from it
i’ve already forgotten
what you’ve been saying
