The Sun, The Moon, and You

After the sun sets behind the clouds
we sit in the car
the moonlight, it struggles,
struggles to compete
with all of your brilliance
and the shine of your eyes

Sunsets and moonbeam glances
never seemed so beautiful
as the ones that shine down
to cast upon your face
Oh I find the chemistry between us
enough to destroy this human race

Swept up by everything that you are
I find a new purpose
in all it is that i do
and as long as you stay
stay right here by my side
Then I know I'll never have to see the dark

Sunsets and moonbeam glances
never seemed so beautiful
as the ones that shine down
to cast upon your face
Oh I find the chemistry between us
enough to destroy this human race

But that's what gets me about you,
the resilience you cast
proving you're not like all the rest
even your worst is profoundly better,
better than all the rest, all the rest

Sunsets and moonbeam glances
never seemed so beautiful
as the ones that shine down
to cast upon your face
So the sun never quiet sets,
and the new moon it never comes,
as long as you are by my side
by my side

I Got It

No no no no I got it
I'm just waiting to get home
I told you once before
I'll be ok and I stand true

No no no no I got it
I know just what's going on
Lying to myself is easlier
So I'll bow out on my cue

No no no no I got it
I already know what I am (I got it)
It's just not the same
I just miss who I was (I got it)
But I'm glad you can forget

I wont live to see next fall
You wont know the difference
I am all you never wanted
But all you ever needed

I've seen what happens
To the brave and the proud
Doomed by crashes and smoke
So I've begged and I've pleaded

No no no no I got it
You know I love you (I got it)
It's just not the same
We were nothing (I got it)
But I'm glad you can forget

No no no no I got it.

Fast Forward

Fast forward to tomorrow.
Skip the conversations you knew were coming
Just like the major leagues
Life keeps throwing curve balls.

A soft noise in your ear
set to send an early conformation
This night will be another night
spent alone.

Playing with the old clock
Watching seconds turn to minutes
and minutes pass to hours
But time is just too slow

Fast forward to tomorrow
Skip the conversations you knew were coming
Just like the major leagues
Life keeps throwing curve balls.

A Message sent straight to the heart
Barely legible, it's an all time low
Compounded upon years of fractures
and scared over bruises

A soft noise in your ear
This wont go unnoticed again
This night will be another night
spent alone

Fast forward to tomorrow
Time faded by fast and painless
it's still going to be another night
spent alone.
