Zolas (The)
Strange Girl
You were the deep well
in earth-and-ocean class
and on the days you showed
I'd try to make you laugh.
Cliques drift and
converge in with a crash
And there we were, desk to desk
a young mountain and a strange girl.
And then we met again at university
you said I came to you in a heavy dream.
Life in a Glass House, you said was your secret theme.
Sometimes you creep me out
have I ever told you you're a strange girl?
We were silver moths
around a naked bulb
on my parents' porch that night
it was love
and it kept moving.
I know you oh so well
since we were 15
so well I feel my joints
when your weather's shifting.
I'll be your confidante
across the continents.
You may one day be queen
but to me you'll always be that strange girl.
