the sky eats up dreams like a hungry stream
the iridescent eyes and compromising sighs
nothing is what it seems when you fall apart at the seams
with all of their lies and all of the lives
yr still the same person you'll always be
the sea lights the night like a moon so bright
with all the faces you've seen in all the places you've been
everything in the world rests in the heart of a girl
with all of their chases and all their shoelaces
yr still tied and bound to the life you'll always live
so what are we running for
when we never leave this world
all of these smiles and all of this love
holds everything we're afraid of
the sun smiles on us whenever we're lost
with sarcastic sips of purplepainted lips
nothing is so true as the truth told in you
with all the times you cope holding hard to yr hope
yr still dreaming of living a happy life in an imperfect world
the stars pine all night for that one hugs so tight
with loving arms where we feel no harm
everything you find is in her eyes when they shine
with all of yr missing of all of her kissing
yr still only hoping and wishing miles apart
and i still hold my dreams so tight
though i've forgotten what they are
