sometimes the moon stays full for days like just maybe it's been burning daylight feasting on the waves filling it's belly with fuel for our fires
it's the hardest then to sleep i lay awake counting the ways to wish for you
in my nightmares you're always just a crest too far to reach i wake in fear that you might never find me but you know how i promise
i shout through the fog to your shadow as it dances across the moon "third star from the right, and straight on 'til morning." you howl back sometimes
the piano keys weep as i stir their fondest memories
sometimes all it takes is a touch to send anyone spiraling back through the years and the fears of everything haunting that's built us
the dark sneaks its way in in our sleep so i try my best to always stay awake out of bed and out of my head
the piano and the storms have become my greatest friends more than happy to join the ride as we bide our time
i sing to the ashtray and cry in the sink and the things i must ignore slide past my apartment door stubbing their toes as they stumble down my stairs
maybe life still isn't fair but it works **** it
sometimes i lie to myself i trick myself into believing that it doesn't hurt when it really ******* burns sometimes you just can't give pain a chance to set in
i'm always warming my hands way too close to the flames now i'm covered in scars it's our roadmap back to the stars to a space where time slows down enough for me to love myself or at least to remind myself that moving clocks in fact, run slow i've been on the fly since the day i came to life i just gotta remember that physics have always given me the choice to stop time
at the drop of a dime i can keep life from restraining me so i don wings borrowing flight from the things i dream
i am built of what i hate but it makes me it makes me strong and courageous and once again beautiful
sometimes everything around you changes enough that you're forced to muster up the courage to bend yourself back into the shape of what you have always wanted to be
sometimes you've had everything that you've been searching for all along
