Gabby

Gabby, I'd hoped that one day we'd get to see this through
 Maybe you'd come for me and I could cover you
 But this is not a pop song. Run away from here or never get anywhere
 I built this war machine of parts from every headstrong little girl who stood over there
 Gabby, I'm not your life but you're hardly Christ, I swear
 See how I've drawn your blood, my redemption wasn't there
 Ambitious little pop star, deeper than every diversion you're caught up in
 You want the same thing that we all say in the quiet, for this life to not hurt again
 You're like a brother, tell me all the things I never knew
 You're like a sister, tell me what it was they said to you
 If what I'll know by then now is true
 Then everything turned out okay, Gabby
 I've been in two worlds, they were mine and yours. They hardly shared anything
 I put a universe between them in my favorite dream. You probably never hear me sing
 You're like a brother, tell me all the things I never knew
 You're like a sister, tell me what it was they said to you
 If what I'll know by then now is true
 Then everything turned out okay, Gabby
 Now all the people in the world are in their right place, boy and girl
 It's hard to say who's right or wrong when everybody's come undone
 Now all the people in the world are in their right place, boy and girl
 It's hard to say I'm right or wrong, my privileged place within the poem
