passing it around without any shame
its crazy how this started out as a game
blink if you'll always remember my name
oh wow i love those blueberry kisses

Stop Overestimating The Power Of The Traditions That Society Continues To Live By Year After Year

i found myself wrapped up in the forests
i joined a band of travelers, not tourists

we roamed within and inside and through
we intertwined ourselves in everything true

you gave me the love i had never known
you showed me what it meant to be grown

they brought us up in a hazy way
they forgot to show instead of say

i discovered the world and created myself
i understood this journey had brought me my health

tell me tell me
what you see
two birds, two planes, a unit of the sea

floating through oceans
causing commotions
unexpectedly, imagining whirls of potions

walking the streets
enjoying small treats
lightly, slightly, messing with  the beats

we've got fairies running through our veins
we're the ones dancing whenever it rains
don't be surprised if we appear in your dreams
the truth is a lie ripped at the seams
slipping through dust and tripping up ends
baby we're not here to pretend

two of a kind
thrift store finds
complicated souls with open minds

always looking
adventure booking
aroma therapy, we know something's cooking

i know you're wired
so ignite the fire
gimme that love and we'll make an empire

we've got fairies running through our veins
we're the ones dancing whenever it rains
don't be surprised if we appear in your dreams
the truth is a lie ripped at the seams
slipping through dust and tripping up ends
baby we're not here to pretend

squinted eyes, sparkling
a bright smile
dimples
the clear sound of joy and excitement
gasping for breath, playfully
you're amused
something is so worth praising
with your beautiful laugh

squinted eyes, reddening
a detached frown
sniffles
the soft sound of frustration and sadness
gasping for breath, helplessly
you're upset
something is so worth condemning
with your beautiful tears

Life is
Painfully
Crazily
Surprisingly
Horribly
Happily
Harshly
Wonderfully
Tragically
And undeniably
Beautiful

why must we speak in tangles
why do we think in such erratic ways
life is full of perplexing complex complexities
is it possible to master the art of simplicity
what is its true definition
how on earth could it be simple
simplicity is its own contradiction

its the middle of the night in the morning
you're filling too much space in my brain
the mild sunlight wakes me
i realize that i'm on a raft
floating on the sea
the memories come rushing back
its too much

oh, drag
it's you again
i miss not having to see you
how i hate watching you move
the way you speak in that unsure, adorable manner
the way you grin and look down to avoid eye contact that I know you secretly desire
you always loved gazing into my eyes
but no longer
oh, how i hate you
im sorry but its true
the way you walk, confidently but with sincerity
the way your hair blows messily in the wind, its long and curly now (the way i like it)
all of it kills me
it was just so nice being away
i grew out of my heartbreak and found marvelous, interesting things and people to steal my time
but just when i make a new and wise revelation
you walk in
basically renewing all of the feelings that i had crushed and forgotten
and i think you know how much worse it is now
the fact that you sit right beside me
and the way we converse casually about our summer happenings so far
we act like were classmates
friendly, but with no history whatsoever
what we had
whatever we could have had
is gone
except for the hidden cravings that you attempt to hide and push away
because you think it must be better this way
because you believe that she
is the wiser choice
so now all we are is
"just friends"

you've got to be kidding me
