The times in my head, burned so deep, that i cannot forget
Walking away from the fear, and finding nothing to run from.
For you, in existing, drove them all away.
I stumble, tripping over you — who I find everywhere instead.
You are worn around my neck like a thorny crown.
A symbol of the strength it takes to wear it
I might as well be floor-less in your gaze
Falling deeper and deeper and deeper still
For a part of me still clings to you
And I'll never doubt it always will.
You caught me, and im safe now
Caught me staring, as if blind
Right past you, into your soul
Sparking interest in my unconscious mind
Its like I know you, like Ive been you, even though
I know that despite my life, ill never live up to
Everything you've built and demanded for your life so...
Why do I feel an overwhelming sense like im
Living a dream filled with overblown suspense
I want to know every little thing you've ever done.
But i know that if i smother you my time left with you is none.
So god what am i doing, looking back as you walk
Waiting for the moment where you look at me and talk
And id hear you like i always do, nodding as you speak.
With tears forming in my eyes, and my trying to hide the leak.
Its a dream worth dreaming, i see it plain as day
You nestled on my pillow, all the fears burned away
A candle on my dresser, has a flame you cant deny.
I crawl into your reach, you put a hand against my thigh.
You have this purpose, beyond me, beyond anyone.
It stretches far out into the universe and reaches me.
Im struck by it in the night
Riding in on the highway of light.
It beckons me and overpowers my emotion
Resonating and cleansing me of all my sins.
Despite everything it hurts this way to watch you
Take step after step in the other direction
Choosing to act like you never cared, to
Forget that spark, that passion.
An ode to everything that never was
A toast to every trophy I haven't won
A speech for the spark, and that love
Heres to the greatest thing I've ever done
