She looks up at me with eager

She looks up at me with eager eyes,
Her mind constantly dredging my beleaguered mind,
Sweetheart tell me what haunts your sighs,
The late nights, the twitches and the cries,
And I struggle to find,
A logical kind--
-- of explanation,
like the ones you find in the lines--
--of an equation,
Baby I wish it was as easy as Sin/Cos = Tan
I wish the tangent made tangible the feelings you have,
I wish the formula for equilibrium could end all the bad--
--nightmares and dreams,
and all those horrible things,
But i'm just a man caught in a horrible scene
And I know you like to sing,
That song about the drummer boy,
But these days they're just decoys,
Drummer boys flap their gums,
Clapping their hands in congress halls,
Setting the beat for their drums,
Calling our march to war,
Setting our deaths in score,
And you're hung up on so many medications,
I can't help but wonder which ones cause inhibitions,
And which ones could be attached to an addiction,
I feel like this is such an oppressive government,
But that isn't it,
It's these people that create the culture,
With their idiosyncratic composure!
Forget you big label reality,
This is my lover and I's true idolatry,
Just you and me,
Looking to live a dream,
And I swear one day--
--this will all come to be,
'Cause right now it's all just me.
