You were an independent variable
Other ingredients minded my conscious
We raised the red flag in the wind
My experiment was to begin
If you were out, you were out
If you were in, you were in.
Your participation made no difference
This was my element for you to witness
My brothers made the potion we sipped
The heavens brought the magic we dipped
My sisters hit every green I clipped
The music was the only truth.
But you didn’t come this far from home
To show up to our playground
Without your own bag of tricks and treats.
You fed me your voice so I drank your potion
You shocked me with your electricity
We dipped from the same magic
The music was the only truth.
The forces between us became kinesthetic,
And I lost all control
We were hopeless magnets
No one would ever believe us
Except the stars who watched
And were proud for us both
But as quickly as we dipped the magic
Hit our peak, touched the sky
And slid back down to earth.
So did the force between us
For better more than worse.
