I wish you were meaner
Someone more heartless
Someone colder
But you're burning hot all the time
Like a softer star whispering into the crook of my neck
How can I feel so connected
Yet be so clueless about what runs through your head
Thoughts shooting so fast
Everything else must be dust
Floating aimlessly
Until you shine your quiet smile
And melt away the fear stuck in their swallowed breaths
As you did mine
I don't think you'd understand...
Your every breath is starlight upon my lips

I wish you were meaner
Someone more heartless
Someone colder
But you're burning hot all the time
Like a softer star whispering into the crook of my neck
How can I feel so connected
Yet be so clueless about what runs through your head
Thoughts shooting so fast
Everything else must be dust
Floating aimlessly
Until you shine your quiet smile
And melt away the fear stuck in their swallowed breaths
As you did mine
I don't think you'd understand...
Your every breath is starlight upon my lips
