I wanna find another new vocabulary
Lookin' for the language that a better person would speak
Line em' all, all the words, make a dictionary
An encyclopedia of how I am permitted to be
And when you meet me in the kitchen with your questions
Then I'll know what I can say without offending
Take a break in the afternoon
And lay your head down on the pillow you know everything's already been said
I am me, you are you,
I hope you know that underneath everything
I still want the same roof over our heads
And on your birthday I will buy a paper lantern
And hope that I can mend a friendship with a gesture
