ElectricityA Poem by Lydia Jamison
The music's always different,
But the lyrics stay the same; I'm getting good vibrations, You're a beat I just can't tame. So what if dreams don't come true? You're the only one I see. I'd rather be lonely forever Than be forced to set this free. You're the song I love to play With the volume turned up loud. I'm afraid that you have captured me, And I don't want to find a way out. You're a million times better Than my favorite song. You make we want to spin your records All day and all night long. The music's playing louder, The windows fogging out. Everything you say and do Makes me want to scream and shout. Maybe I'm delusional, But I don't want to care. Should I try to face reality? I won't even dare. You're the only thing I want for me, Everything that I can't be, And as the beat keeps getting faster, The world starts drowning out In your electricity. They can call it crazy, But I'll just call it love. The only way I could describe this, The only thing I can think of. No, I don't need a dance floor To show the way you move me. You don't have to say anything, We can be a silent movie. Come on, you can get closer, I just want to feel your pulse. Give me all your energy. I hope you catch me when I fall. You're a million times better Than my favorite song. You make we want to spin your records All day and all night long. The music's playing louder, The windows fogging out. Everything you say and do Makes me want to scream and shout. Maybe I'm delusional, But I don't want to care. Should I try to face reality? I won't even dare. You're the only thing I want for me, Everything that I can't be, And as the beat keeps getting faster, The world starts drowning out In your electricity. I don't hear what they say, I see you standing in my way, And I'd rather you not move. I might be after you. I want you so bad that it hurts, And every day it just gets worse. It's starting to devour me. Can't stay away from your electricity. You're a million times better Than my favorite song. You make we want to spin your records All day and all night long. The music's playing louder, The windows fogging out. Everything you say and do Makes me want to scream and shout. Maybe I'm delusional, But I don't want to care. Should I try to face reality? I won't even dare. You're the only thing I want for me, Everything that I can't be, And as the beat keeps getting faster, The world starts drowning out In your electricity. © 2011 Lydia Jamison |
