I never have to carefully shape sentences
When I’ve got some words to say
They’re falling from my mouth from the time
That they hit my brain
‘Cause we built a picture made for frames
We live in chemistry away from all the wasted time and taste…
~*~
There’s a reason why I like the pink in your mood
My words hit the ground, but you catch them so we’re good
If time’s running out for me, I’ll be sure to take it slow
I may be high on conflict but on your sights I’m low
.
The amount of space between my smile and eyes are closing in
But frustration and disappearing sense is not a problem
Because if you laugh, then I laugh, and if you cry, then I die
The city’s a slow waltz into the colourful cocktails we have to try
.
I may speak my mind but I talk with my heart
And it only takes one skipping beat to know where to start
I keep falling for everything that wants nothing to do with me
But I’ll keep trying until the blondes stop being pretty
.
I change so quickly, I don’t even know what to think
And your face goes from soft violet to vivid blush like a 90’s trick
I’m the rain that you chase, you’re the lone cloud in May
Our weather’s too erratic and unstable, but I adore it anyway
.
So don’t get me wrong, your fingers may be pointing
But I’ll take them in my hand and yell bang, the bullet’s flying
You’re troubled by the clothes you wear, confused looks good on you
It accentuates the glow in your halo, but you never had a clue
.
I’m asking all the wrong questions, but you still answer them right
And I’m hoping to the moon that you’ll answer the most important one tonight
I’m dirty red, you’re canary yellow, let’s collide together and be orange fire
A hurricane’s sleeping in my bedroom, can I stay over? We can dream until we’re tired.
~*~
My mood’s dictated by our conversations
And if you don’t text I get too frustrated
I want you all to myself this time, t-t-time
Conflicted looks good on me, I’m trying desperately
I want you all to myself this time, t-t-time…
