Broken thoughts on the tip of my tongue
urging to slip out,
to spill
I can’t stop this feeling
haunting me
It seems to follow wherever I go
Aching cravings on the side of the road
Frozen
in time
I don’t know where this is going
but I don’t like it
no, I don’t like it
My dear,
I’m in the headlights
hardly moving
Breathing fast under the moonlight
just need to get away (and run)

have I let my dreams fall through
an imaginary timeline
all the things I say and do
I can see them, like whispers on a web
you think you can unlink me
from all the places that we’ve been
I’m not a flower on your chain
you can’t screenshot every little pain
If you never liked it,
it never happened
it never happened
Unlike life
Unlike
Is my honesty embarrassing?
raw emotions from the gut
you copy, paste, ignore, and cut
I know, the words, they feed you
Wish I could look you in the eye
and show you everything you’ve done
Memories all tagged with stains,
screenshots of every little pain
If you never liked it,
it never happened
It never happened
Unlike life
Unlike
If you never liked it,
it never happened
It never happened
Unlike life
Unlike
I play my thoughts
Repeatedly
On a broken string
(What could’ve been?)
I feel ashamed
(What could’ve been?)
Let the memories seep in
What could’ve been?
If you never liked it,
it never happened
It never happened
Unlike life
Unlike
If you never liked it,
it never happened
It never happened
Unlike life
Unlike

I’ve told you once
and I’ll say it again
Whatever you need so you can
Listen
No matter how you turn it
there is nothing under
No matter how you learn it
it’s a numb null void to fill
(And it doesn’t add up
it doesn’t add up
it doesn’t add up)
Line up the numbers
write down the names,
whatever you need to make it
make sense
But no matter how you turn it
there is nothing under
No matter how you earn it
it slips away so easily/fast
(And it doesn’t add up
it doesn’t add up
it doesn’t add up)

I heard you
under the weight of the sun
leaves rustling,
and a whistle so easy
I thought I’d burn my eyes
when I looked up
I saw you there
Blue and beautiful,
watercolors through the sky
It breaks me how
you lift me up,
all my insides turn to dust;
it's such a small gesture.
In the blazing sun
I remember who I am
For a moment
there’s no doubt
I am you and you are me
you are me can’t you see
On a branch
of a lemon tree
I saw you,
so calm and so serene
I wonder what you know
In your black eyes
pools of memories and sights
Give me something,
show me vistas full of light
In the blazing sun
I remember who I am
For a moment
there’s no doubt
I am you and you are me
you are me can’t you see
