My brother used to be selfless,
So I thought I was too selfish,
then he reminded me how much of his life his'
How much of my life was really mine at 14?

Just because I was strong doesn't mean I can
seize the wrath of a disgruntled bolt with a single clasp.
You tried to gently dismantle me to pieces but I still crumbled
and passed it off as a slow death to make it humble.

How could I have not been hurt?
Letting time heal me was worse.

All these tears soaked the same clothes,
Couldn't stand on my feet so I wandered as a ghost,
And slid behind the window of what used to be home.
Then I realized for many, many months that I was so alone.

If you have a reason, make sure it's yours.
If there's a life you're fighting for, make sure it's yours.
If there's a pain you're letting go, make sure it's yours.
Even if you're a little lost, make sure the path is yours.

With you, I'll count every single blade of grass,
Sharing the view with you feels like flying in first class.
Even the petals can't tell "loves me, loves me not" apart,
Because they'd flown and nested on your hair from the very start.

Loving you is so rich, yet so free,
but I wouldn't have cared how much it cost.
I'll be ****** to think otherwise;
I was never trained how to break other people's hearts,
I'll be daft, but that's while I try.

And so there's no way I'd flee, not a world without you is free,
As I could live inside our album holding my poses for eternity,
Unmoved, never having to take a heave to wrestle my doubts,
Every stain of marble will have our reflection glossed out.

But if we fell into a hole in the ground,
Will the right time tell us when to come out?
If the water we dived in has become an all drought,
Would you be okay with hiking on a mount?

A nod is all it takes for a single step.
If not the stars, we could glow on lava lamps
and march into love with just our calloused hands.
I could gamble my heart, bet half to keep you and play with chance,
And the other half would've gotten to you anyway, because it always has.

Tangerine skies, puffy clouds,
Roots protruding off the ground.
Ants crawling to the oaks and
Two hearts conquering the land.

Spiraling shells, sand castles
we wish we could crystallize.
The waves tugging the sand and
Two hearts conquering the land.

Shaggy rug, tabletops
and a couple of wine shots.
Moping over a spilled cup and
Two hearts conquering the land.

Busy streets, light streaking at
teeming roads and buildings.
Hours bought firsthand so
Two hearts can conquer the land.
