Stay awake
Each life is like a blink of the eye
Breathe in
I feel the weight as the words they tumble down.
Brace yourself
Your life’s about to change
How you don’t even know
But change is hard to deal with
When all I feel is how I miss you now
As you sit there
Crying on the phone
It’s funny how a goodbye is the only way to really say
I love you
And love that’s shared is love that’s spared from every inch of soil
Between us now
Places
A time, when I don’t know how
Oh the simplicity
To piece together all I’ve been shown
But I don’t know how it feels
To have every piece of me crying to go home
Oh the fear when I wake
And the pleasure of falling asleep next to you
And the weight of the crime
When we know that we do not know what to do.
As you sit there, crying on the phone.
As you sit there, wishing yourself home
