Dweller Of Our Heart
“The essence in us is the same as the essence of the sun”
You’re somewhere in my chest, a fancy place to hide
like that heat creeping in when I’m half asleep, kinda shy
We all got that fire the same one the sun’s rocking
sometimes flickering, sometimes straight up shocking
No not a clean flame, more like stubborn smoke
hangin’ in the ashes, refusing to choke
In all my cracked-up moments, you pop up like a start
raw, real, unpolished, right in my heart
No smooth lines, no perfect art
just you, me, and sun, tangled from the start
