Swallowing Swords

Never let go those years of discovery
There's only so much a pair of arms can carry
Embrace these years of necessity
Put your mouth around your double edged sword
Your unhappiness is what you are
The same nervousness that makes me good at what I do
Is my enemy today and will be my whole life through
I'll spend it with you
I have climbed a mountain
You've swam in every ocean
You've heard a million songs and never tried to sing
I've read hundreds of books and never wrote anything
I love you -- Just the same
