Special Effects |
| I don’t want to see you in a screen |
| I want to feel you in the flesh and on the scene |
| I love all the words and what it mean |
| But it’s so much to say in the spaces in between |
| I don’t want to watch dots disappear |
| Listen here first reactions are crystal clear |
| I want the uncut sentiment |
| Before you had a chance to second guess and edit it |
| I love you for the first draft you |
| All the technology on Earth can’t improve |
| No special effect and no Santa Claus |
| Uncut, acoustic and analog |
| A lifetime measured in breaths |
| The face is a mirror that your heart reflects |
| And when the eyes meet, they directly connect |
| And that’s what you call true special effects |
| Staring at your picture hanging nicely on the wall |
| Longing to be near you because life is way too short |
| I traveled through the night 'til morning light broke through the storm |
| Just to see your face again |
| I don’t want to watch your life in pictures |
| I’m trying to be right there with ya |
| We’ll be so rich at the end of all of this |
| We can scroll through memories without any filter |
| I’m trying to share life as it comes |
| No time-line from the night to the sun |
| Crème de la crème and crust and the crumbs |
| Let me not hear your voice in a speaker |
| I’m tryna feel the breath as it leaves ya |
| Message receieved, you best to believe |
| Your real life friend is requesting to see you |
| I’m here to watch your story unfold |
| I don’t really want to only be told |
| Everything I hold is pressed to my chest |
| That’s what you call special effects |
| Staring at your picture hanging nicely on the wall |
| Longing to be near you because life is way too short |
| I traveled through the night 'til morning light broke through the storm |
| Just to see your face again |
| Into me you see I see |
| Inherit in here I hear |
| I give fidelity free |
| See my peers appear my dear |
| Groove to the beat that frees your mind state |
| Put your heartbeat on vibrate |
| In other words what |
| In other words huh |
