Treat me like a queen and I'll treat you like a king. Treat me like a game and I'll show you how its played.

I am observant and adventurous
I wonder what it would be like to read minds or teleport
I hear the stars whisper sweet nothings to each other
I see the flitting beat of a Thestral’s wing
I want to discover places unknown
I am observant and adventurous

I pretend I’m diving to the bottom of the sea
I feel like I can reach infinity with just one leap
I touch the curve of reality, but just fleetingly
I worry about what it feels like to die
I cry because of ignorance and insolence
I am observant and adventurous

I understand adventure awaits those who seek it
I say it’s time to do what you wish to do
I dream about pieces of paradise, hidden among reality
I try to search for wilderness among the calm
I hope to find someone to encounter wanderlust with
I am observant and adventurous
