the world is a falling bomb
                  a shooting star w/ no place
                  left to go but comatose
destinations, reinvention of something new
                                         something smiling
                                         something worth the cost of

an eyesight so beautiful
a sunset so memorable
a peace
            & ash will always caress

the world is a ticking clock
                  a broken dinner plate too close to the edge
              & a memory of days spent running in wet grass
glass fills our lungs & we breathe in shards of
sunlight desperation
                                this highway is magnetic w/ joy & I'm happy
                                to go w/ these amicable tides

this is freedom
in hearts this is freedom in
             buildings thrown on foundations of
this is freedom to speak
                       to raid your mind
                       to ride your ready-made thoughts
                       to blow the sky away

one day
at a time
Hello, goodbye,
Don't wonder why,
I'm here today,
I hope I'll stay.
If it means seeing you

Did you know you're half way across the world
Baby, tonight I really want my girl
I miss all the things that we do
And everything that makes you cute

Would someone please get my baby?
It's been too long, it's been too hard, and now I'm ready to give up
If it means seeing you

As every other couple on earth cuddles
We're left alone with ourselves just to mumble
To no one about how we miss us
I think I might catch the next bus

How am I supposed to dance when the slow song plays
There's no choice for me but to miss you
And I've been doing that since day one what else is there to do
I'll wait for you to wait for me
I'll wait for you to wait for me
I'll wait for you to wait for me

Would someone please get my baby?
It's been too long, it's been too hard, and now I'm ready to give up
If it means seeing you tonight

Would someone please get my baby?
It's been too long, it's been too hard, and now I'm ready to give up
If it means seeing you tonight

— The End —
