detritus

the detroit army is winning the war
and you know how they get after a victory
it's gonna take weeks for the streets to recover
so we should find a good game and snacks to bide our time
if you wanna come over, i mean, to wait it out
with you on my bed and i'll take the couch
i wasn't implying anything dirty
or expecting that you would give me anything of yours
just hoping for the pleasure of your unique company
while watching the fall of our arrogant acropolis on CNN

unless you have something else planned
i would love to share the warmth of the first pure sunrise
something about the dawning of a new era
has made me realize that i want a little more out of life
and if i seem particularly fearless or attentive
it's only because i see what i want now, and you're it
and since this war isn't gonna be the last one
i'd rather watch you sleep and think about life
