I would love to melt into the f*****g sky
Just as it pours into shades of purple and red
And orange (which is ugly on its own)
With stars peeking out from behind
The curtains of our atmosphere

I still find it absolutely insane
That the stars I see today are the same stars
I've been seeing my entire life
And how the stars I see today
Are theoretically and potentially nonexistent

If I was the sky
My eyes would make up the slim part of the horizon
That no one really notices
Until they're parked out by a lake somewhere
Holding the one that has a grip on their heart

F**k the sky
I would rather be interstellar
Quick mind change, I know
I want to make a home out of the darkness
So I could prove my depression
Is nothing but the illusion I have of myself

I could float away into an oblivion
As I watch the stars I stood between
Fade into a mere memory
That is the floater running across this page
Coming from my left eye

It's quite unfortunate
That my thoracic cavity is too small
So it must choose between my gray and dying heart
Or the lungs that continue to inhale the demons
That are bringing me close to my fate
And now, the cigarette that burned these thoughts to my mind
Has finally burnt out for good

I like the train of thought in this. Its really a roller coaster to read, a lot of insight into your mind
