Just Me To My Own Way

I don't run, I skip I don't fall, I trip I don't swim, I skinny-dip My heart won't crack, it will rip I don't take things plainly I was never "good", I was great I think highly of you mainly Don't worry when you leave me, I'll always wait Walk barefoot Wear shorts Ankle bracelets, nose rings Loose hair Laughing so hard you snort 3-2-1 blast off Press the button and watch me fly I can shoot up to the moon Fall back and land on your sky Let's break clouds Crack mountain tops, split stars Overtake the things above So we can leave the heaven's our scars Let's dance to outer space Make music that echoes on Saturn's ring Pluck a guitar string and watch it waver Make lyrics that will make Venus sing Step to the beat Make your sneakers squeak Beat slips under your soles Dancin' and singin' Off your tongue the lyric rolls I like making noise I like to break the skies Chillin with my girls and boys Life with me is one big surprise
