Gabby, I'd hoped that one day we'd get to see this through
Maybe you'd come for me and I could cover you
But this is not a pop song
Run away from here or never get anywhere
I built this war machine of parts from every headstrong little girl who stood over there
Gabby, I'm not your life but you're hardly Christ I swear
See how I've drawn your blood, my redemption wasn't there
Ambitious little pop star, deeper than every diversion you're caught up in
You want the same thing that we all say, in the quiet, for this life to not hurt again
You're like a brother
Tell me all the things I never knew
You're like a sister
Tell me what it was they said to you
If what I'll know by then, now is true
Then everything turned out okay, Gabby
I've been in two worlds, they were mine and yours
They hardly shared anything
I put a universe between them, in my favorite dream
You probably never hear me sing
You're like a brother
Tell me all the things I never knew
You're like a sister
Tell me what it was they said to you
If what I'll know by then, now is true
Then everything turned out okay, Gabby
Now all the people in the world are in their right place, boy and girl
It's hard to say who's right or wrong when everybody's come undone
Now all the people in the world are in their right place, boy and girl
It's hard to say I'm right or wrong, my privileged place within the poem
