There were those nights where
I would sit and look on
how things are between us
and I would come to the conclusion that
times will come when we're not okay
and I'd always fear if I will still feel the same after

I'd delve at the thought, hoping I would see myself
as nothing more than an overthinker
But the universe, then again always proves me wrong
wrong in the most cruel, diabolic ways

The universe is cruel
but... you make me see otherwise
because cruelty can't make me smile..
driving you home on a Thursday afternoon
watching the sunset, and with our friends
looking back at the day, thinking..
The day was just right
cause it gave me a right reason to dance

Whenever those nights come back
I'd always tell myself in a lonesome chant
"Remember Yesterday"
because it was when we were okay
Rather than other days, I'd prefer Yesterday... But one can't dwell too much in the past.

She stands elicited with fear
She holds a heart in her hands
So fragile, so loving
It's glorious

It's the most delicate thing she will ever hold.
He trusted her with it.
He handed it to her and said
/keep it safe/

So she did
She held her own heart in her left hand

And with her right
She took his heart and put it where hers used to be

He had his hands out for hers

But she was still holding onto it.
Holding on like you would
In the middle of a hurricane.
Holding on like death was at your door
And you were trying to sneak out the back
Holding on because
She was frightened

But she looked in those eyes
A sky full of blue
Full of hope and something she didn't know
And she held out her heart

But she was still frightened, still scared.
Afraid, afraid he'd throw it...

But,
He didn't.
He took it as careful as possible and put it where his used to be.

They had one another's hearts.
And for once,
Neither one of them were shattered.

The thing about the life you've had
Is that there's no edit button
So think twice and act once

I know for a ******* fact that I'm no model.
But there's no need to degrade me because of that.
I mean, yeah.
I can't control what you say.
I'm not going to try to.
But it does hurt.
Please...
Just keep that in mind.

Don't mind me as I sit here
Hiding what I really want to say to you
And replacing it with what you want me to say.
This isn't directed to anyone in particular, but....

Dear World,
Why are some of the greatest people
Taken away so quickly?
