I used to feel fireworks fly and go off in my head, My eyes used to light up like supernovas, And my heart used to jump out of my chest like a frog in hot water The feelings I had for you once brought cheer And let the angels come down from heaven To combat the demons that held me to the ground And prevented me from ascending towards God's light Alas, those days are gone like leaves in the wind I am greeted by a dark, starless nighttime sky (A sky which used to burst into color) I drown in the somberness of it all And let it embrace me in all its tenebrous beauty Without love there are no fireworks in my head, The stars in my eyes begin to dim and fade, And my heart does not beat I wish that my feelings for you could once again open the clouds And show me the angels who freed me from ******* But those feelings are gone and those days have passed
