Stop signs,
Concrete,
Racing cars,
All blind to the stars.
Let it fade away
with the bright light
of day.
Simple things
like porch swings
and sweet teas
make memories.
The sun sets
on the brokenhearted
girl
down the street.
Look at what we've created,
our very own,
beautiful disaster.
You say you don't sleep
you say you won't eat
you say many more things
that bring tears to my eyes.

I see you sliiping away
silent and fast
and I don't even know
who you are any more
or how long you'll last

But that's not what concerns me

It's that I can't seem to reach you

Far off
in your distant world

To give you advice
to help you see clear
that you are still here
that you can still live

You've already accepted
your impossible fate

I'm affraid I'm too late
to make a difference here

So I let you go
I watch as you die

Darling spread your white wings
and fly my friend

Fly.
Cucumber mornings and coconut breezes
Embracing the moment
As the wild wind teases.

Painted red roses and stunning green eyes
Surrender your heart
To harmless white lies.
