YOU CAN'T HAVE MY INCREDULITY

Sleep into this newness with me after
all I never remembered so many dreams
before or even dared to let them play in
widescreen it's a wonder they haven't
sent you running for cover or screaming
from the room what a gem willing to
stick to me how many days in a row now
and this time for real when you told me
no one's twenty anymore thank god I had
to laugh could have cried who could take
another day of that hell not me the way
you look over my shoulder I finally realize
we're exactly where we've always been
heading can you believe it please believe it.
