I Am Not the Only Cowboy

And it starts like this
 We crave to be kissed by a moment complete in its happiness
 Far away from the things that we wish to escape
 That lead us to think that we are not awake
 We are ourselves despite ourselves
 This place gets smaller as the universe swells
 We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
 I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
 And I am not the only lifeguard who's washed up on the shore
 Wake me up, take me out
 Call me down when I'm in doubt
 And I'm in doubt every day
 Words are like weight with density and shape, modifying forms they evaporate
 You can choose the truth, you can listen to light
 You can lead the charge and still lose the fight
 Far be it from me to claim anything
 For I am just one in a state of being
 I come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
 I am not the only proverb that never really fits
 And I am not the only Caulfield who's catching more than kids
 Wake me up, take me out
 Call me down when I'm in doubt
 And I'm in doubt
 And so it ends as it begins as everything that is infinite ascends
 Into its time all things pass
 All things fade, all things last
 You are yourself despite yourself
 This world grows smaller as the universe swells
 We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
 And I am not the only boxer that hasn't words to write
 And I am not the only poet who's much too scared to fight
 Wake me up, take me out
 Call me down when I'm in doubt
 And I'm in doubt every day

 And it starts like this
 We crave to be kissed by a moment complete in its happiness
 We are ourselves eventually eventually eventually
 I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
