Mar 12
You left papercuts on the surface
Thin lines across my heart
They’ll find their purpose
If we stay apart
I won’t let another wander
Where you once moved through my soul
I used to bend like grass in wind
Waiting for you to make me whole
I would’ve handed you midnight
Every horizon I could hold
I was sunlight once beside you
Then your silence turned it cold
I look down from every rooftop
Every ledge where I stand
Just to keep your thoughts restless
With the fear you can’t withstand
So I stepped from the highest tower
In the loneliest part of this town
And suddenly there was only sky
No gravity pulling me down
Now I drift between the cloudlines
A shadow you can’t deny
You search for me in passing faces
I’m the flicker in your lover’s eye
