Steam

All pumped up and weightless and you're gone
Like some perfect cloud I'm stepping on
Gone one minute, then the next you're there
All your words are water and then air
You had left the party when you came
And you lingered for a minute, then you ran
I like love like apricots and you like kerosene
Or maybe I'll just swallow anything
You like fighting everything I am
As if I were a callous on your hand
If you rub it, perhaps I'll just go away
Or if it doesn't bother you
Then I'll stay
The joke has parked its truck outside your door
I'm inside and I'm rolling in reverse
And the wheels are spinning wildly on your lawn
Steam one minute, flash, then they're gone
