You look like a reason to try to want to wake up A reason to try again You look like the shameless shade autumn wears, Not apologising for all the goodbyes it brings. You look like a reason to want to die a little less, A reason to play dressing up in front of the mirror You look like this rebellious pen of mine, Taking a break from the blues and writing about the red in your cheeks Clichés be ****** it yells. You look like a liberation death could bring, but only sweeter, The light filtering through the curtains, but softer You look like the face of a stranger I confessed my miseries to long ago and wished never to see his face again when I was done Except I could never run away from you, pls don't make me ever wanna You look like the adrenaline rushed first kiss, But with more finesse You look like all the warning signs I have ever ignored when I ran past them, Except this time I want to stay and discover why. You look like all the poems I have ever sat on fire, except you fire never burns you into Ashes, it somehow compliments and coexists w your halo You look a lot like humming bird, except you're humming in my heart, fuzzily flowing into my veins

You
You look like a reason to try to want to wake up A reason to try again You look like the shameless shade autumn wears, Not apologising for all the goodbyes it brings. You look like a reason to want to die a little less, A reason to play dressing up in front of the mirror You look like this rebellious pen of mine, Taking a break from the blues and writing about the red in your cheeks Clichés be ****** it yells. You look like a liberation death could bring, but only sweeter, The light filtering through the curtains, but softer You look like the face of a stranger I confessed my miseries to long ago and wished never to see his face again when I was done Except I could never run away from you, pls don't make me ever wanna You look like the adrenaline rushed first kiss, But with more finesse You look like all the warning signs I have ever ignored when I ran past them, Except this time I want to stay and discover why. You look like all the poems I have ever sat on fire, except you fire never burns you into Ashes, it somehow compliments and coexists w your halo You look a lot like humming bird, except you're humming in my heart, fuzzily flowing into my veins
