Trust me I wanted to leave
But the leaves don't fall too far from the tree
So what does that make me?
Imprisoned in a cage or a minute or two from a trains delay?
I made my bed and I lay
Forgive the thousand broken hearts as it may seem the seams weren't right on our sleeves
I wasn't ready to go but the door mirrored an image of my soul
Proceeded with caution
Tapes across your face
Tick tock knock knock
Invite me into your space as the world orbits around your waist
It all shouldn't come easy to say
Cupid flashes a grin and I walk straight in
Darkness and lust
Babies and wings
It must be an excuse but I started to believe in forever
So don't be scared
Hold my hand
We'll see how long it takes our weighted hearts to drag us back to the ground
It's just
Funny how I say I'll leave
The skeletons in our closets no longer seem afraid
We walk around with broken bones and broken hearts till we find our escape
Is it fair to say I promise you the world when in truth I see galaxies in your eyes?
The constellation on your arm dot dots zig zags over your skin
Are my words cutting too deep?
Please I mean no harm but my pen bleeds with the red you're so accustomed to seeing
The sharp knives replaced by words piercing into your heart till they starts to form beats
Boom boom boom
Is this the lullaby you often desired?
My bird your wings do not form shields
Yes you soar but the landing has always been tragic
You offer a smile and a casket
Gladly I take my place for I fear even in death you're someone I can't replace
Broken pieces are what use in a puzzle?
I stand and wave as my heart departs to meet your embrace
Kodak moments mistake the days we waste
We run with scissors in traffic praying we find our way
Isn't this fun my darling?
Aren't the stars outstanding?
Twinkle twinkle little star
My bird I wonder how far you are
Do you look down from the sky and see me waving?
Do you mistake my hands for ants searching for a home that no longer exists?
