simon says

simon says
time isn't real
don't waste your life trying to help people feel
like they are something solid instead of spinning their reels
a woman of your kind should stear clear of dark deals

simon says while we're lying in bed girl i can see the energy
flow up in colors around your head
this moment is worth knowing and should be well fed
watch the ingredients come together and rise like bread

then he adjusted his helmet dove from the back of the plane
exited the scene with the same grace with which he came
left me in the cockpit over looking my home state
a new view of the horizon, fields and silver lakes

simon says
don't use my name until the storm of your heart
has subsided and tamed
he would not follow, promise or blame
he just bowed politely and flew away
he just bowed politely and flew away
