And trample through your head and lay your
mind out on the pavement
Confusing and consuming all in all it complicates me.”

“You've got it all turned upside-down.

You project on her your inward scenes, she's a blank, external movie screen.
But the One who looks out from your eyes looks through hers and through mine.”
