Some people like summertime.
They like loud parties with loud people
They love and live for the sun
For golden-brown tans and expensive sunglasses
They like the feel of the daytime,
of being alive and happy
They live every moment like it's their last
Never staying in one place too long
After all...
Why stand still when there is a whole world to explore?

So
In other words
Those people are just like
you.

You crave adventure
And the fast-paced world
And Chasing is your profession

The first thing you did
When you came into town
Was chase
Me

And I lead you to something I thought you'd like to see
So that night
As we stood under the stars
You laughed

"It's so quiet."

Had you ever stood so still? Just watched in awe? Not caring about where you'd been or where you were going?

I told you about the perpetual sky
How their light shines for those who look for light in the dark
And your eyes twinkled
To form two new stars themselves

And I smiled

You see
Some people like structure
The like to stay and explore the details
After all...
There would be no world without the little things, now would there?

As I stood there
With you
I asked if you wanted to stay
Even if the chase was over
And your fingers grasped my hand

Your eyes answered for you

the rain slowly paints your face with youth
making you look out of place this night
I can see the sky pressing down on your slim shoulders
you're weak

deny it all you want
I see your body shaking
underneath your torn clothes you've tried your hardest to rip
you're vulnerable

the moonlight makes you glow
it sees you in a different light than the rest of the sky
I know who you really are, not who you pretend to be when the light shines

you are weak and vulnerable in your suffering
but you make the coldest nights beautiful
**you somehow spin my world a different way

I watch the tear leak down your cheek
Escaped from your red rimmed eyes
In my arms I feel you shaking
Trying to so hard to say good-bye

Darling, don't make it ******* yourself
Wasn't it easier to grab your bags and go?
There was no need to tell me you'd be gone
I'd settle for a simple 'I'll see you tomorrow'

I won't believe I've left your heart
Until the day you've completely left mine
Telling me you're leaving doesn't make me believe it
Until you're truly gone and we've run out of time

The sheets on my bed
Like long arms, envelop me
Strangling me to stay
Well, at least I feel something

Can I close my eyes
And hope that I wake up elsewhere
Where the rain shines on the other side of the Earth
Is there someone to help me somewhere?

Can I trust my nightmares
Will be better than reality
Or is this as good as it gets?

I think that's why I believe in God and in heaven
There must be some other land than distress.
