"innocent and so naive"

I’m spinning dreams with threads of guilt and mistakes
And this sunlight filtering through my blinds gives this dark world some irony
From the tunnel vision to the cramped backseat, you’re all that I can see
You’ve brought the light in to my mind
like the sunlight dancing on my walls thought the blinds
you could be my sunlight, only if it didn’t sound so clichéd
I won’t say anything
I’ll just let the light dance off my walls and silently think of you as sunlight

i guess i'll see you around

the space between something and nothing is filled with me and you
old feelings are running away in the dark
the speed that our secrets are formed is half that of how fast they can destroy
the freedom wheels are turning counterclockwise
and headed on a long trip alone
this sweet air screams infidelity
don’t be fooled

full (half) circle

My feet up on the dashboard
you’re tapping the beat of a song on the steering wheel
our aimless love taking us on a midnight ride
our mix tape is filling the dark
Side A is full of our favourite memory songs, sunsets, and first kisses
headlights giving us small glimpses of what’s ahead
This is freedom
these four wheels moving beneath us
the bumps in the road are symbolic of you and I
I envy the innocent
I want highway signs to take me home
we’re spilling forever from our pores
but this could all be over tonight
the loss of this peaceful night is quickly forgotten as new light spreads across the horizon and onto the dashboard
it’s Neverland on repeat
I sing, write and live for somewhere I’ve never been
Side B is full of emotions I’ve never felt but wish I had
I make circles in dust
and laugh because I know that patch of dirt will never be the same now
because of me
I wish I could do that to a person
Even you’ll be the same when this ends

I screamed a good bye lullaby
my words flow under the stars and above your head
I’m caving in to my scars
and I’m jealous of your lingering scent
cigarettes and cologne;
never thought I’d find comfort in that smell

2 years and countless fights later; here we are
Our headlights piercing the darkness
Our heads still spinning the "happily ever after"
