Glass Between Hearts

I wish you wouldn’t sleep that way
Just like you did yesterday
In between your cleanest sheets
Cause I lay alone in mine
Wishing I could stop my fingernails from ripping them apart
And it’s so hard to breathe tonight
And know that you are away from here
Cause here used to be right outside my bedroom window
You would always peek through
Hoping to see my dreams taking place
Cause you filled them with your grace

I won’t ever forget the day
You told me my window would no longer be marked with your evening’s fingerprints
Cause you clung too hard to the glass
Until it all shattered and sliced your dignity to die
Before you even learned to fly

I wish we could just go back
To the nights you would watch my dreams take place
But now you’ve lost all your grace
And I’m so out of place

I wish we could go back to the nights my window radiated
With the light of the stars you hung on my ceiling
Lit, and kissed my window goodnight
You hung the stars and kissed my window goodnight
Kissed my window
Oh, you kissed my window goodnight

Tastes Like Bullets

If this is really happening heal me now
But don’t ever tell me how
You forgot the kiss goodbye
Your lips tremble and lose the dye

Take your voice and take your soap
I’ve already washed away all my hope
Burn your records and seal the ashes tight
And I promise I’ll forget tonight

It’s the color my eyes never were
That’s floating all around her

I was broken I was healed
All my good skin was revealed
And locked into this guessing game
Of pure misuse and shame
But my eyes never saw someone as pretty as you

Don't worry like you never did

I'll get my paintbrush back soon
Make my wings gold by noon
I'll be fine
I've got Frank Sinatra
We're into witchcraft
And you're just another spell gone wrong
But my eyes never saw someone as pretty as you

Saturday

Fighting Gravity

When I was five I tried to fly
And when I turned seven I sold my broken wings
But I never sold my desire
For a powerful wind to transpire

Oh take me wind, oh wind
Take my joints and let me fly
With all the birds and shiny airplanes
Lift me up like he never could
All the ways I knew you would
As I hid amongst the darkness
In that trap set out for me
