If I ever dance
It will be alone
I'll have a shadow I see a face in
And a ghost that I become
It will never rain
And the eyes will always be blue

The clouds are weapons of war
Casting calloused fingers onto the skin of my feet
I cannot walk
I'll run away
Hiding behind the corners as the clowns decry my name
I won't know how to feel
I don't know what to say
The only thing I ever wanted
Are the things you wanted yesterday

you dance in my head
running circles in my mind
can't seem to shake
the familiar feeling
that words you say
have no meaning
when our love is dead

we spend so many of our days
just trying to pass the time
barely looking out the window
to see that life is passing us by

the sun sets and the sun rises
method becomes routine
as we move along
with robots in our minds

days become months
months melt into years
are we standing steady and still
or facing our faults and our fears

when the sun and the moon
take their final spin
will we have been satisfied
with the way we've lived-

how we've passed the time?

when it comes down to it
your choices
are what change you
your mistakes
are what make you human
your life
is a string of events
waiting to unfold
your time here on earth
is a never ending story
waiting to be told

but at the end of the day
when you can't decide
how to spend your remaining time,
whether you wish to travel the world
or stay put in one place
remember that wanderlust doesn't need a degree
it's hard to say
that there's a cost to living free

the most intimate minutes
are the ones spent with you
when the lights are off and it's quiet
wrap your hands around my hips
hold tight
kiss me on the lips
spend these intimate minutes with me
before we say goodnight
