You dreamed I got stabbed 27 times
Which is crazy
Because you should know
Dying happens on the inside

I dreamed you drowned
When the waters ran over in May
I left your body in the water
Relieved of the promises
That still torment your spirit

I am an even keel
Still waters do run deep
The earth was hollow yesterday
Until we buried our secrets in her
Robbing her of innocence

Are my words dead to you now
Like the tree we used to climb
When we were younger
And not so good at lying

You cried wolf, I cried white
You took the color from my veins
Stole color from my pain
Painting me out to be the bad guy

It's never that black and white
You played me like piano keys
When I was just happy to be dancing with you
Before I ever heard music

I wanted to ask
Would you still **** me
If I was the last star in the sky
Will I always be guessing
Which half of your promises you intended to keep
Which half broke me
If shooting stars are just floating space junk
Or if wishes do you come true
Just yours and never mine
