His name was pure and easy Unlike the quest to figure his heart out It’s like he swallowed the sun And you could see it beaming through his eyes I tasted him like blood in my mouth after a fist to the face I felt him like fire, flames burning my body until it’s nothing my heart  was fixed on his compassion His drive and his dreams But you can’t hop in an acura with a ford budget You can’t go to the top of the world when you’re afraid of heights His light will forever consume me But I’ve grown numb Exhausted on trying to return to a place that never even existed in his eyes Exhausted on remembering this broken memory of something that never   was I’m counting down the days until I accept You can’t surf just a wave during a tsunami But at least I tried

Take The 60
His name was pure and easy Unlike the quest to figure his heart out It’s like he swallowed the sun And you could see it beaming through his eyes I tasted him like blood in my mouth after a fist to the face I felt him like fire, flames burning my body until it’s nothing my heart  was fixed on his compassion His drive and his dreams But you can’t hop in an acura with a ford budget You can’t go to the top of the world when you’re afraid of heights His light will forever consume me But I’ve grown numb Exhausted on trying to return to a place that never even existed in his eyes Exhausted on remembering this broken memory of something that never   was I’m counting down the days until I accept You can’t surf just a wave during a tsunami But at least I tried
