Like Slow Disappearing (alternative)

Three sixteenths of an inch
Disappeared right behind your lips
We were waiting and watching the light in the sky
It hurt my eyes
I guess that it must've been then
We slipped out of our cagey hands
And got tangled and lost and dove further out
Into it all again

And I was afraid
But you were glowing like
The most relieving light
You were my revealing light

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were
Attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes
Again

Over our heads in a daze
We sat and watched while the setting changed
Into something I'd read in a book that I loved when I
Was young
I fixed my stare to the screen
A show with a monster was on the TV
It was early October and all of the yards
Were alive with lights

And I was afraid
And you were glowing like
The most relieving light
You were my revealing light

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were
Attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes
Again

I closed my eyes and suddenly we were
Attached
You stayed with me after the moment passed
I felt you
Buried deep under my chest
Like my lungs when I'm breathing in
And I was not myself when I opened up my eyes
Again
