lyrics

She spoke, I choked, bad joke awoke a glow deep within me
And it’s something I never had felt;
It’s warm to the core I could melt.
Three years, flood tears, cold fear, once dear, now I’m rebuilding.
Is it worthwhile in feeling at all?
Things have been great since our fall.
I’m wet as the sea; my Pisces heart bleeds.
I need someone of one entity.
No more two-faced insanity.

O Gemini, why?
O Gemini, why couldn’t you make up your mind?
You wasted my time
When you told me forever,
Then you kissed me goodbye.
O Gemini, why?

I’m free to be everything we had talked about being.
Well, ‘cause I’m a few fish in a pond. Tiny fish–really big pond.
I swim to win, my fins are nimble, elusive, sneaky,
While you’ve no mystery at all, ‘cause you read like Kinkade in a mall.
There’s no crueler thing than your Gemini swings;
You need to learn to do more than just speak,
‘Cause you never knew what to think.

O Gemini...

You need to fly, to flee, nothing will keep you tied to me.
And though you don’t know what you’ll do,
You know that you need something new.
I hope you can find in some other sign
A reason to live, to love, to breathe
In the waters of some different sea.

O Gemini...
