my ghost past lives are chapters I've bookmarked for the future
the consequence of some romantic pursuits are the sutures
your hair unfolds in locks of gold, heaven's chains across my pillow
sky battle scene inside my dream beneath the weeping willow
our thoughts connected like electric current flows in between
I sit awake thinking thoughts that shake your body while you're sleeping

we were a boy and girl in a hidden world following all the right signs
to an accidental sentimental intersection of two timelines
a symphony surrounded me i heard timpani and heartstrings
orchestral scenes cinematically composed of beautiful things
if it's so good don't you know i would go and sabotage the whole thing
here to destroy the road to joy before we got down to playing

I walked out in the rain
but I didn't feel anything
just wet and looking strange
ready to turn the page

with demons vying for their time and a seat at the table
catastrophizing self realizing prophecy is just a fable
we're in control of somethings I know but only if we're willing
to face the fears that crept in here like sweet poison always filling
the cavities inside our teeth and lungs and through our bloodstream
eradicate these weak merchants trading of our love for the Morphine

your hand in mine pulses at the right time, you're picking up your breathing
it's all I need to feel relief that this fever might start breaking
no serpentine needs to tempt me with apple trees or knowledge
there's nothing I wouldn't dare try to pull you from the cliff's edge
my soul is yours and so I'm sure we're in this for the long haul
I love you with my every breath and I'll give you more than my all

we walked into the flames
to rise above the pain
arrived with tired eyes
to watch wildfire subside
