Keeping Company

Are you deserving
Sweet simple being?
I look for learning
You are the teaching
I was a body
Captured and proud
When you were thirteen
It wasn't allowed
How you said nothing
But you understood
To cross your boundary
What do you look at?
I am your body
Your only friend
You look in corners
But now I understand
The danger
Danger
Isn't over
Danger
Five years
Two months
And a day
Danger
But danger
Danger
Isn't over
Danger
Way to
Danger
I got away
Danger
I move myself softly
To your favorite groove
The page is on six
And all that I took
I seem to measure
With every inch
Until it is over
I'd do it again
You never noticed
Or else you ignored
So let me show you
What bodies are for
Your look is skinny
As your face is white
I'm spending money
You're spending the light
But danger
Danger
Isn't over
Danger
Five years
Danger
And a day
Danger
Well danger
Danger
Isn't over
Danger
Way to
Danger
All the way
