Michael Penn

Figment

Leave it for a while; come back

Leave it for a while; come back

Leave it for a while; come back

What would make a smile on you?

Are you closing in? Come back

Are you still believing what you read?

Are you still believing every word?

(That is what I heard)

But before the day is done

You will notice one

Is caught inside a web somebody spun

In your imagination

Treaded water 'til I made you cry

But I loved you more

Than I will now recall at all

I was born to call that bluff

And isn't history

Just a bargain and a plea

That we'd all know what to break

And what to rise above

Do you think that love

Is a figment of your imagination?

Leave it for a while; come back

Leave it for a while; come back

Leave it for a while; come back

What would make a smile on you?

Are you closing in?

Are you now receiving what you need?

Go find your magician now

I'm an apparition

Under some suspicion

So I flew

And the sky's so blue

For a coup d'etat in your imagination...
