Pouring Sun

Breathe in and out and don’t fall for the lies of society We are breathing in pollution of poverty Heartaches are blameless, but I am blameful Shattered and insignificant…left on the floor…wasteful Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue You’re so distant and far from my reach Your love, your kind of dynamic love I beseech Fast speed of shapes shape-shift right before my eyes Love is working and you run me over by your lies Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue Pouring sun drenches in my eyes of reflections and shadows Collecting woes…bruises and clues of faithless woes… Holding unto me once more, winter froze me long ago Shades and hues of uncertainty clothe us all…so? So? Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue You ignored my calls and messages of a billion light-years of love Don’t you know, you little sparrow, that wings of flight comes from up above? Sacred sanity crowns my head and I pray you sift out the dread Shielded by God’s royal grace, I see your face with an outlandish, yet total trippy trace Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue Beautiful as you were to me, You’ll never, ever see it, the beauty The beauty The beauty I long to be… I long to be… Free, Can’t you see? Will you ever see? Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue So blue…if only you knew So blue…if only you knew The dark secrets of time You got to try… You got to try to fly Internalizing isolative comments Negativity and what not Has left me to rot Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue Enflamed by encouragement Deflamed by discouragement Holding in resentment Deceived by the heart many-a-time… Pardon my lack of enthusiasm…sin is crime Sin is crime Sin is crime In a flick of a dime Apparently, you are different and better than me Aren’t you lonely and fading? Running my mouth and flipping out frankly, frankly Can’t believe you’re miserable and hating! Press your body against my own… We are one, no longer two Like black and white skies…we blend…you’re my backbone Right in front of the insanity of my sadness so blue Whatever or whoever you want to become, Be that person, not the numb victim of dumb For you are not dumb, you are smart And smartness comes from the heart I memorized it by heart The moment we both broke apart “Be a dream-catcher, not a dream-destroyer” “Demolish not and construct a lot” Pouring sun has won Dim moon has lost
