Nemesis
So I opened the front door
You walked in all handsome
And ready for something
You saw in my eyes
Right here
We sat and we tripped out
Saw celestial mosaics
And I fell and I crawled over
And held your hand
And nobody worried about the roof being blown off
So I went farther than I'd ever gone before
Change, you are my nemesis
Transition, I hold my breath
This about-face, I'm excited
I'm excited
Yet I'm filled with despair
Anticipation and dread
This metamorphosis closed the door
And opened a window
And so
I climbed the stairs and bled
And here was a starseed
Right here he came to us
In the bed in our bedroom
And you trusted me enough to follow me anywhere
Or the other way around
The other way around as well
And I blocked my nose and dove in the deep end
And swam like my life depended on it, and it did
Change, you are my nemesis
Transition, I hold my breath
This about-face, I'm excited
I'm excited
Yet I'm filled with despair
Anticipation and dread
This metamorphosis closed the door
And opened a window
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, no
Oh, oh, oh, ah
Oh, no
Right here, in this very backyard, we promised forever
And we put our helmets on and threw the confetti
And then there's the phone call
Telling me to breathe in through my nose and out my mouth
And out came our girl, faster than we thought
And now I am beyond recognition
I guess that's a good thing
And still, I want to go deeper
Change, you are my nemesis
Transition, I hold my breath
This about-face, I'm excited
I'm excited
Yet I'm filled with despair
Anticipation and dread
This metamorphosis closed the door
And opened a window
Oh, oh, oh, oh...
