Climb from Exchange by Emily Bezar

rack and pinion hesitations, borderline incriminations
throw me anesthetic and I’ll breathe again
like a wayward tire in the road
I rolled right down and knocked him cold
now he has awoken and put me on hold

what you savin’ it for?
I am not a delusion, you could be mine
the day you walk through my door
heaven and earth, baby they will align
I have been so broken and blind
right about now is right about time
right about now the ladder works fine
later on you, you better know how to climb

spic or span, used or new, spin me ‘round, run me through
I could really use a few of those light light rays
proselytize, pontificate, adamantly stipulate
that you’ll give me the key to crash those pearly gates

what you savin’ it for?
I am not a delusion, you could be mine
the day you walk through my door
heaven and earth, baby they will align
I have been so broken and blind
right about now is right about time
right about now the ladder works fine
later on you, you better know how to climb

I can blow your little mind, blow it right away
you are one of my kind, knew it from that day
you will fade out in time, this I know is true
but now while she’s still standing by, oh what can I do?

I am changed by the birds, watching them so free in flight
I imagined that’s how you would love me
now I look beyond the sky, I’ll see you in that cosmic eye
I’ll dream you in jeweled vistas high above me

what you savin’ it for? are you just a delusion…all in my mind? is heaven more
more than we two deserve to find?
crazy like me, crazy like you, crazy in rhyme
everything old will become new…baby in time
climb, why don’t you climb?
climb, why don’t you climb? yeah yeah yeah
I have been so broken and blind
right about now is right about time
later on you you better know how to climb
