Joining You

Dear dar(lin') your mom, my friend
 Left a message on my machine she was frantic
 Saying you were talking crazy
 That you wanted to do away with yourself
 I guess she thought i'd be a perfect resort
 Because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth
 And yes they're in shock they are panicked
 You and your chronic them and their drama
 You this embarrassment us in the middle of this delusion
 If we were our bodies
 If we were our futures
 If we were our defenses i'd be joining you
 If we were our culture
 If we were our leaders
 If we were our denials i'd be joining you
 ♪
 I remember vividly a day years ago
 We were camping you knew more than you thought you should know
 You said "I don't ever want to be brainwashed"
 And you were mindboggling you were intense
 You were uncomfortable in your own skin you were thirsty
 But mostly you were beautiful
 If we were our nametags
 If we were our rejections
 If we were our outcomes i'd be joining you
 ♪
 If we were our indignities
 If we were our successes
 If we were our emotions i'd be joining you
 You and i we're like 4 year olds
 We want to know why and how come about everything
 We want to reveal ourselves at will and speak our minds
 And never talk small and be intuitive
 And question mightily and find god my tortured beacon
 We need to find like-minded companions
 If we were their condemnations
 If we were their projections
 If we were our paranoias i'd be joining you
 
 If we were our incomes
 If we were our obsessions
 If we were our afflictions i'd be joining you
 ♪
 We need reflection we need a really good memory
 Feel free to call me a little more often
