Rain is hitting the window seal.
Here I am sitting still.
Wanting to live the life that's mine.
That's impossible with you trapped in my mind.
I met this girl and she filled me up with light.
I don't understand why I think of you at night.
Two years without experiencing a sunrise.
Woke up a little over a month ago to one staring back into my eyes.

You
Every night I had when I was younger
I would pray for it to end, not to get stronger
I regret every one of those thoughts
If one time it had come true
I would have never met you
You came through out of the blue
And had me lost standing, there didn’t have a clue
What on earth you could do
Not once did I expect you to enter and renew
Everything that had expired in my heart
You entered and you became a part
We can’t ever be apart

Two and a half years I have searched
For a girl that would make that time worth
I'm not saying that one is you
But I wouldn't be upset if it's true
You came in so unexpected
And not once has that been regretted

Tell me it's okay
That's all you need to do
Reinforce the fact
It's okay to love you
Be my fields of yellow
I see when I feel blue
Be with me forever
That's all I ask of you

I'm way too close to my emotional side
And one day that may be my demise
I overthink situations in my head
Over and over again
For in life
They never happen
I consistently thought about you
For a year or two
Until the other night
I met someone new
They told me I didn't have to be 100% over you
And if I never got there it would be totally cool
I will be forever thankful for them
And if not a partner I'll at least gain a friend
And with them around
I don't think I'll have a heartbreak again

I look deep into you
But I wanna see even more
I can tell by the look in your eyes
You can't shut this door
You let me in your life
Now my words make everything sound right
Last night was a very sleepless night
But my actions made everything feel right

Flowers, grass, and trees
I look around and that's all I see
Walking down this path all alone
My eyes and brain start to roam
My eyes spot a little flower
My brain begins to grow sour
Looking at something beautiful stings
Not physically but my knees get weak
I stumble over to get a closer look
Pick it up and begin to break down.
Before I found you I always frowned
Now I smile only when you're around
