why can't i take the wheel?
i need to steer the ship before it sinks into the ground.
why can't i control what i feel.
i tell myself what i need to do, but then you come around,
and i just wanna believe in the dreams i dreamt for us,
this whole galaxy i built for us.
i just want to move it from my creative mind, to the outside.

the colors are always changing, and i cant keep up with the mix and matching shades.
today i feel like i can love you, but i cant promise tomorrow will be the same.
so what is this continuation of events when i know i'll still be stuck tripping over make believe footsteps.


you cant shake what you feel.
i've learned that the hardest way possible.
and you can't predict that glances are real,
because when youre heart is set, it's unstoppable.
i just want to open my eyes and see what i saw when they were closed,
so how come when i open them, i feel alone and so exposed,
i just want to feel like i'm still in reality today.
