He’s the song in the car i keep singing
He’s the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
Real love shines golden like starlight and doesn't fade or spontaneously combust.
Pierce the room like a cannonball
Loving him is like driving a new maserati down a dead end street
Like the colors in autumn so bright just before they lose it all
Back when you fi t my poems like a perfect rhyme
The way you move is like a full-on rainstorm and i’m a house of cards
You gave me roses and i left them there to die
I lived in your chess game but you changed the rules everyday
I took your matches before fire could catch me
I’m shining like fireworks / over your sad empty town
Your voice like nails on a chalkboard calling me out when i’m wounded
The story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Searching for a sound we had not heard before
It’s a new soundtrack i could dance to this beat
The lights are so bright but they never blind me,
It’s gonna go down in flames
I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream
You took a polaroid of us then discovered the rest of the world was black and white, but we
were in screaming color
What was shiny now it’s all rusted
Band-aids don’t fix bullet holes.
They got the cages; they got the boxes. And guns they are the hunters, we are the foxes and
we run
The flowers that we’d grown together died of thirst
There was nothing left to do when the butterflies turned to dust that covered my whole room
So i punched a hole in the roof i let the flood carry away all my pictures of you
The water filled my lungs i screamed so loud, but no one heard a thing
We encounter the nuanced complexities of trying to gure out who to be, how to act, or how to be
happy. Like invisible smoke in the room, we wonder what kind of anxiety pushes you forward
and what kind ruins your ability to find joy in your life. We constantly question our choices, our
surroundings, and we beat ourselves up for our mistakes.
May your struggles become inaudible background noise behind the loud, clergies voices of
those who love and appreciate you.
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes
I’d be just like leo in saint-tropez
I’ve been the archer i’ve been the prey
All the king’s horses, all the king’s men couldn’t put me together again
I am an architect, i’m drawing up the plans
Running through rose thorns i saw the scoreboard and ran for my life
The whole school is rolling fake dice, you play stupid games you win stupid prizes
We were a fresh page on the desk filling in the blanks as we go
But if the story’s over why am i still writing pages?
I enjoy nights in brixton, shoreditch in the afternoon
Stick with me, i’m your queen like a tennessee stella mccartney on the heath
Put you in jail for something you didn’t do
