You fight until you don’t In a gnarly struggle of swinging fists Prophetic black and blue You blame until you don’t Endurance soothes a mind disturbed Framing an unfolded masterpiece They laugh until they don’t Glares sweetly coated in candor Small testaments to your power You fall until you don’t Standing shoots you straight to the moon In the midst of stardust and composure You cry until you don’t Tears that decorate the galaxies around you Scrapes simply fall into orbit You suffocate until you don’t Liberation seems like an old friend A beauty you idolized in secret You write it down until you don’t The pen is taken from your hand Leaving spiral-bound notebooks in the dust You’re there until you’re not An absence weighing heavy in your place Legacies of the strength to overcome You care until you don’t

Until You Don't
You fight until you don’t In a gnarly struggle of swinging fists Prophetic black and blue You blame until you don’t Endurance soothes a mind disturbed Framing an unfolded masterpiece They laugh until they don’t Glares sweetly coated in candor Small testaments to your power You fall until you don’t Standing shoots you straight to the moon In the midst of stardust and composure You cry until you don’t Tears that decorate the galaxies around you Scrapes simply fall into orbit You suffocate until you don’t Liberation seems like an old friend A beauty you idolized in secret You write it down until you don’t The pen is taken from your hand Leaving spiral-bound notebooks in the dust You’re there until you’re not An absence weighing heavy in your place Legacies of the strength to overcome You care until you don’t
