there are city streets I have not paraded down and stars I have not kissed beneath there are bridges to be crossed and burned elevator buttons to push and flights of stairs to climb I have a thirst to see the world I want to scrape the corners for every last taste I want to awake in a city I don’t belong in, but I have potential sometimes I think about how much time I wasted on you wanting to be labeled as “Yours” how silly of me to forget what the world is holding for me outside of your arms

Thunder Diaries I
there are city streets I have not paraded down and stars I have not kissed beneath there are bridges to be crossed and burned elevator buttons to push and flights of stairs to climb I have a thirst to see the world I want to scrape the corners for every last taste I want to awake in a city I don’t belong in, but I have potential sometimes I think about how much time I wasted on you wanting to be labeled as “Yours” how silly of me to forget what the world is holding for me outside of your arms
