about
Fall is around the corner and it’s the season of change. Last year I fell in love. This year I had to learn how to be alone against This song is about that.
lyrics
Half of this decade I spent inside my head
Just Waging wars
upon All these paragraphs on
Parchment paper that I tore.
But I’ve finally found the words I
I need the both of us to hear:
Theres so much of you I love
And so much of me I fear.
I threw rocks outside your window
Hoping you could guide me home.
I thought it was my casket
But it’s only when I’m not alone.
I spilled out these dilapidated guts
inside a parking lot and the trail
led me straight to you.
When I searched and I searched for
What’s a boy to do?
We sold souls for second chances.
We stole kisses like a crime.
We took risks on broken hearts but
We have reason to this rhyme.
Now the weight of this whole world
I could carry with ease
Even with these heavy arms
And even with these weakened knees.
Lost inside of coffee talks
And drunk of smiles and laughter
Only made one thing sure:
For once in my life, I was pure.
Life went on.
We drove all night until the dawn.
But the sunrise
showed off all the tears in your eyes.
And I said “I’ll be
whatever you want me to be
Even if you don’t need me.”
Now this evening is slowly dying
Alongside my broken phone.
I hope one day you will answer
And I’m more than just a ring tone.
I am sorry for my actions.
But I’m grateful for our days.
I just want our final chapter
To not be a bad cliche.
I had to learn the hard way
There’s no happily ever after
But stories still end for the best.
So I hope you know
Even with these broken bones,
I’ll hold you close to my chest.
