Her: " I was blowing up a dry cringe / I leaned toward the sadness quenching cocktail / I am walking to the end of the day / Now I'm calling friends to ignite the five o'clock benefits / And that's when I realized it--it struck out of nowhere / I'm doing my best to shift a mood, embrace the creaminess of gentler times, of good living. / During a crisis What can I say? / a massive margarita midafternoon / it's exactly what is needed."
Him: "I understand a language dipped in seawater / I'm exhausted from frayed and wobbly woo-woo / I'm asking myself, when your heart is beating, between beats, is it possible that I am someone else / That's not a thought that would've cropped up in the past. / maybe a shot of hard backup bourbon just in case / and now I feel face-to-face / what's going on right now is My life is stuffed cabbage--the no-frills type / I want hazard pay--for talking about the memory of what it was / Wait a minute, I was off the rails from the first few seconds / the long and short of it is that we are our own performance in the moment."
