Soulmates Never Die

By Kevin Robey July 13, 2014 We live in skinny dreams that fell between the seams May be dimming but we still know how to run free We're floating carelessly in flawless imagery When you keep asking me; we're always 17 We found this city in the highlights of our dreams Where it's just you and me surrounded by our family Briefly the moon retreats behind the engine steam Our train keeps running as the sun pours into the sea And when demons breach the walls we've made We'll serenade this audience of angels in the sea They'll bring us fearlessly into the futures we delayed But when we settle there it's only you and me We'll smile and laugh in the places we have drowned They tried to repress the scene before you and me their eager hands reached to pin us to the ground But they lost us in the echoes of their hollow hypocrisy This was the day where the two of us approached the sea That long ago, devoured our bones and left us out to dry Today we replace those empty days with better memories We sit alone, side by side, where soulmates never die [Listening to "Team" by Lorde]
