| Skies went dark, got hard to see my body all stretched out. | |
| Territory to touch and make a path to lead you down. | |
| If I could hold the wildest winds from blasting through my house, | |
| Then I could shine a beacon whether floats, fine, yes, or drowns. | |
| But there was no heat, it all had been extinguished, | |
| Snuffed right out. | |
| That was not the way | |
| I meant to disappoint the crowd. | |
| If you want my center, please don't slice so much around. | |
| And if you won't be having me, watch the sorrow shake my mouth. | |
| And you don't want to hurt me, | |
| But you don't want to need me, | |
| So how can you receive me? | |
| Take a seat, don't grieving be, let's settle this all out, | |
| Then one by one | |
| I'll take these from the caverns of my mouth. | |
| The teeth who mash and teeth who make my tender muscles shout | |
| A last goodbye to lose what once | |
| I'd never known without. | |
| And in my mind, the river runs a straight line through the town, | |
| Never bending, only sending stuff from north to south. | |
| Under bridges, fishes wear the currents like a gown. | |
| And I will swallow crookedness, not let it drag me down. | |
| Afraid that if | |
| I cut you loose, | |
| You'd never again want me to | |
| Embrace you in your solitude. | |
| Now in our eyes, we both still find the perfect place to rest. | |
| We'll unfold wings and fly a while, before the next caress. | |
| The atmosphere will hold us dear and teach us how it's best | |
| To both feel free and satisfied, our two souls will be blessed. | |
| Before my eyes, the fireflies they make the night sky low. | |
| Captured by the sounds of all the horns that the frogs blow. | |
| Through tears so thick, like glue they drip and build a castle slow. | |
| I can see you saved for me the sweetness that still glows. | |
| And though you're still my | |
| Hercules,Neptune's the one who's taken me. | |
| Come on, lay that strength upon my sea. | |
| Steady the string and snap it down the dust gets in my face. | |
| A borderline to not cross, mind our manners, keep in place. | |
| Still, I recall you once extended me with handsome haste, | |
| A rope to climb, to call all mine, to ascend you with grace. | |
| Now we will burn the fog away, our hearts are like the sun. | |
| We moved it now, that's a way down and though the change was rough, | |
| We'll find our lives are kinder without complications of | |
| The fear in me that had taken seed and crowded out the love. | |
| I want you and | |
| I let you go | |
| Though we can still walk on the same road. | |
| If we don't try it, we'll never know. |
