I am awake when I see nature’s beauty
But I have to sleep to dream of you
It’s so easy to fall for the sunset
There is no good or evil inside to see
There is no fear of what it might say next
I’m always ready to try it without remorse
I don’t have to think about it until I do
And tomorrow it will wait for my return
But getting personal is not how it loves
It doesn’t have to do anything, unlike me

But how much more could I love someone
A wild animal will never make it easy
A snake makes a path then sheds itself
Changing with life as it’s meant to be
And to love you when you are so fragile
So able to crush my spirit with your body
Giving it away even though you love me
You can do that because I never knew
You were willing to take it as far as it takes
My pain proved you once were in love with me
