the nights don't end like they used to anymore
its something i've grown accustomed to
a feeling, a thought, an idea
that would never come to fruition
under the orange glow of sun sinking into the bottomless ocean
in my mind it's so loud i can barely hear anything
the chill of the concrete under my feet flows through my soul
and suddenly my head's a little clearer
i remember that awkward smile of yours
the look you gave me that said nothing is going to be okay
is something i had grown to miss (it was better to hear it from you)
speaking without saying a word was our favorite past time
the fidgeting and funny faces was but a subordinate clause
that the our mouths are forever kept shut
in a world oblivious to our existence

all i feel is water and shore
there's nothing that needs to be done about faded passion for living a bit more
so we'll sleep in a little more often
and spend time screaming at the sun
for showing its face at a time like this
the night sky existed for our eyes only
your beautiful brown eyed frown reflecting the icy moon hidden deep inside of you
that feeling derived from an air of meloncolic anger
inhaled deep into the crevasse that is my soul
as my heart is set aflame with a disgusting passion
no longer satisfied with exchanging longing gazes after dark
but our love remained manifested only in our own minds
our lustful but emotionless caresses
evidence that we had lost the ability to love and be loved
we'll wander aimlessly and take the entire world in
avoiding the sobering warmth of the sun
to live another moment in our sentimental oblivion
a look
a touch
a reminder that i will always love you
as long as we relish in the feeling
of living in a world oblivous to its own existence
so sleep in a little more

I want life in every word, to the extent that it's absurd.- The Postal Service
