Economy of Heart - Living Room

You and I are islands

When you’re pulling in the tide

I’m releasing from the other side

When you and I are wires

The powers on

We cannot stop the flow

You and I are seasons

When winter comes we die

So something new can grow inside

When you and I are even

The pendulum will circulate and rise

Like an ascending carousel

Of give and take

Awaken all my honesty

I’ll love you either way

And that’s the cost

Of being ones and zeros

Lost in this economy of heart

You and I are so addicted

High on getting low enough

To know we are conflicted

Until I owe you the ocean

Trying to distinguish

From the stillness to the motion

You and I

Are unconditional

So we’ll ride this carousel

Until it turns upon itself

And there’s no more you and I
