The Death of the Unicorn

...the title is the musing of a friend

This is nothing, silent cries
Of the smiles I feel and
The frowns in your eyes
We always knew we’d go down in flames
What could we do but try?
I think we did the best we could

Now I wanna go, to Colorado
Hide away from all those tears
I wanna be on top of mountains
The sights I could see, away from here

He makes me feel like lightning and thunder
Where you knit ice inside my veins
But the pieces you left weren’t so broken
And his touch fades them all away

I wanna go to Colorado
Oh the places I cannot go
To see the people I can’t see
The things I’d be away from here

I never thought I’d want him beside me
That he’d make me see you were never there
And he wants to go across the ocean
I think I could live my dreams out there

I wanna go across the ocean
To be with him away from here
I wanna see the ancient ruins
To touch the past like he erases fears

I wanna go, I wanna go
Somewhere away from California
Somewhere where I can just be me
I want to go to Colorado
To lay in his arms and feel his smile

This is nothing, you were nothing
The silent tears were brilliant lies
He makes me feel like lightning and thunder
I’m living the fall and I will survive

Somewhere away from California
Somewhere away from California
Any where but California

I wanna go to Colorado
I wanna go across the ocean
Somewhere away from California
Anywhere but California

I wanna go to Colorado
Just walk away from everything here
I wanna stand on top of mountains
With him at my side the world is clear
