Metronome

You are my metronome  
 
I’m a beat off and i swim in my head
 
Your steady rhythm puts me back into
 
Real that I should pay attention to  
 
You are the dorsal fin you keep me straight
 
I’m into my own beat just a beat off
 
Living in my truths that I lie to me
 
I come back to you you set the rhythm  
 
The rhythm between me and you and then some
 
Metronome ticks within me now  
 
You set the rhythm I lay it down
 
Rhythm and rhyme and why r h y
 
You take me back into myself  
 
But I look away at me I feel the rhythm  
 
Tick tic tok within us  we come together  
 
You’re me in metropolitan metronome
