I've thought a thousand ways to die
without ever finding a successful life

Catching blue stars
flying in the night
leaving a trail of celestial dust

My reflection has become a shadow

I feel shallow

The water isn't too deep
It's blue far away
but faded green close enough

lights follow me everywhere
the moon staring at me in the afternoon

In the middle of it all

Trying to love it

I say I'm not afraid of dying

My heart aches
every time I lie to myself
