All her waking life she thinks in shades of inadequacy It’s a shame that she can’t see all the beautiful things I see in her The beauty of life that lives and breathes inside her (Like) she’s got martini eyes framed with supernovas Galaxies of city & colours radiating like an illuminating beacon A Maine lighthouse on the edge of a cliff overlooking the coast, The guiding eye of beaming light brilliantly shining Along the rocky shoreline of her mind It’s a complex thing inside libraries and randomness sometimes
But don’t look away for too long or you may miss How she times her life on the withering ashes of cigarettes And how many Dispute The Horizon With Me songs It takes to pull into the parking lot at her work Says it takes one cigarette to get to the freeway Two if she’s feeling adventurous And track number eight when Jordan Sykes shouts:
‘Love is the blood splatter of our liberty, Seeping out of Cadaver grins and Chelsea smiles Unshakable in our solemn vows of serpentine addiction, The feelings we inked with heartached hands are mutual, Darling’
She’s the kind of girl with a nervous lip-biting laugh Laughing when I tell her it’s better than eight cigarettes and one song She liquates tornadoes of wished away secrets When she whispers moods of hushed sultriness in my ear Sending shivers up and down my spine and making me feel alive It’s all I can do to sit here and resist her sometimes Says she doesn’t want to be treated like an animal Even tho she loves every animal alive today And shares a remembered heartache for those that died
(So I abide and put in my time Causing getting to see a girl this celestial is like seeing stars streaking across a newly born sky)
She dreams of slinging seashell butterflies and necklaces made from sunshine Living her life down on the beach with the ocean always to her front side Says she wants sunshines and sea salt, deep endless oceans rolling Wants the ability to just leave it all behind if she feels the urge Her spirit will explode with fragments of violets and high magenta Lighting up late night beach bonfires and deep endless ocean waves
Says these are only dreams tho and as much as she’d like She just can’t seem to get over some past her’s karmatic escapes But she’s going to keep on dreaming cause dreaming can help Says today she’ll dream in moonshines And maybe tomorrow she’ll have her sunshine
(I tell her if she had my eyes she could do anything she wanted to do And that her sunshine supernova is already radiantly shining within her)
