| i'm the garden you plant
the son of a man
the first grain of sand
i was out in the cold
the December snow
when they closed down the roads
that's not you lying in those clothes
just a figure of a man I used to know
you sow all the seeds and they grow into me
and now it's time for you to plant another row
i'm a half-written book
a fish on the hook
the first of two looks
i'm a broken machine
and old trampoline with some rusted out springs
i'm a bottled up note
a song you once wrote filled with old anicdotes
you're a memory from a photograph I found
a broken picture frame lying on the ground
i'm forced to believe in something that can't be
in a world that won't wait for me to come around |
| |
| i swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun
choking on salt water, i'm not giving in
i swim
|
| |
| Let's talk about spaceships,
or anything
except you and me
Okay? |
| |
| Just a couple verses...didn't get to the real heartbreaking parts
happy fourth weekend!

| If you be my star
I'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
if you be my boat
I'll be your sea
a depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity
ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze
I live to make you free
I live to make you free
but you can set sail to the west if you want to
and past the horizon till I can't even see you
far from here where the beaches are wide
just leave me your wake to remember you by
if you be my star
I'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here with more room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
stardust to remember you by |
