Metaphors
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your features defy all metaphor
And I'm the king of those
Your hair is too pretty to be compared to a city
So I'll leave it out of all my prose
And your eyes are unlike any ocean
That I have ever seen
Unlike any jewels
They break the writing rules
And I am trying to keep this song clean
And not to mention
Despite pretension
You are infinitely interesting to me
It's so unexpected,
My heart feels unprotected
I'm so thankful for that way you look at me, me
And everything that you say is a poem
And I'm hooked on every word
Your mouth speaks no lies,
It needs to alibis
And not one single word is slurred
And I love that you talk about dylan
And all the books you read
I know you so well, didn't notice any spell
But you seem to be taking the lead
And not to mention
Despite pretension
You are infinitely interesting to me
It's so unexpected,
My heart feels unprotected
I'm just thankful for that way you look at me
