We were two distinct lands divided by light
in my forests slept a cold penumbra
in your savannahs shone the blazing sun.

If you ever ask me
how I really feel about you,
I’ll say that
even though we’re hundreds miles apart
I can still feel your fingertips
wander through the lining of my skin
and the warmth of your lips follow in cadence
I’ll say that
I fall asleep thinking about you
and wake with you being my first thought
That’s how I feel,
I feel you all the time,
all over.

Despite the infinity of stars
in these nights skies,
the ones that I want to see
are those of your eyes
And even though you're not here,
every beat of my heart bears your name,
every wish whispered to the moon involves you
I want to shout to the world
how much I love you
until I lose my breath,
until my sanity is questioned
And if that's madness,
I’m not afraid to say
I’m madly in love with you.

I said goodbye
but keep looking for your soul
in other bodies.
I said “never again”
and here I am
still writing about you.

Kiss me softly
right where my wings unfold,
hold me like your tears carry promises
deeper than the wounds
your fingernails have dug in my spine
but please, darling,
don't hand me flowers
your fingertips can't bend to the will of,
and don't you dare point at stars
your arms will never reach
because this doorway is used to seeing
your shadow go and come around
and these walls have seen you
take much and give little
your ego is used to feeding off
of this my will to stay,
a will that’s slowly eating me away
and though my lips stay craving
the lining of your body,
my heart is starving
for something real.

You are my best mistake
and if I could go back in time
I’d still choose you.
All was wrong
but felt so right,
following you down,
struggling to lift you up.
I’d make the same mistake
all over again
over anything,
over anyone,
I'd always choose you.

They say good boys never win,
I thought it might be right.
I’d always been good to people
who'd only made me lose.
Losers that made lose.
And there was I,
the good boy gone bad,
being good at being bad,
being bad
for the sake of not being good,
because I wanted to win.
I’d been craving
to know what it was
not to lose myself
trying to find purpose in someone else.
Until I found my one
and got lost in those eyes.
Now we're on each other's team
and together we’re invincible.

We wander
through the sleeping town,
through its glory and its misery
The night is ours
and only she knows
the words of passion
that spill from our mouths
What a beautiful feeling
knowing that neither the moon
nor the stars
are going to tell on us
Because we belong in the night
and she belongs to us.

Swallowed by the waves
that birthed me,
I shout at the moon
as angels with broken wings
drag me by my bleeding feet
The scars that mark my skin
are all shades of blue,
they carry stories I whisper
into the night winds
that sweep them back to me
The sleeping world crumbles
under the weight of my tongue,
acid words pouring
from my blazing chest,
my breath sets the skies on fire
Swollen tissue, aching bone,
kings and queens watch me
walk over the line
that goes along their spines
and leads nowhere
and everywhere.
