Dolphins always have one eye half-open while they sleep 

Imagine all that fear around the company you keep 

But you let both eyes gently close together in the light

And breathe, since there has always been some uselessness in sight 

You must be awful comfortable to let the great doors down

A golden sense of safety in this sketchy two-horse town

I take it as a complement you sleep while you're yet waking

A subtle kind of love for me inside the risk you’re taking

In assuming that I don’t have hidden teeth
