Timeless

I wanted to stay there forever

Under that tree with you.

I wanted to lie there

Live beneath the sky's blue.

I wanted to look at the constellations at night

And name the clouds' shapes in the daytime.

I wanted to stay there

Timeless and free

I wanted time to stop

Static

Freeze you and me.

I wanted to talk to you

I wanted you to open up

I wanted to reach you

Love you

And stuff.

I wanted to stay there

Together as we grew old;

Timeless

And painless

Where nothing went untold.

I wanted time to stop

When you met my eyes.

I wanted you to come back

To see the sun rise

With me at your side

Like it was supposed to be

But this reality's not timeless

Not happy for me.

I wanted to stay there

In that desperate golden moment

Young and in love

But I'll never show it.

  • Story Mountain

    I guess I've been thinking

    The story mountain we made

    And the characters didn't even get their lives told

    Because ours crashed and burned before we could handle it

  • I Won't

    Nope

    I'm not going back to school.

    I'm going to ignore the back-to-school ads

    And shopping trips

    The packing

    The new outfits

    The brand-new pencils

    I won't do it

  • Glimpses

    Noise

    Warming up

    Keys

    Fingerings

    Chatter

    Laughter

    The chorale

    Stopping

    Starting

    "Again"

    "I know you can do better than that"

    Serious but

    You also love it
