Epic of Romantic
We looked through our magic telescope into future
only to find absolute gravity
somewhere a clock was ticking,
until our lives would become trainwrecks to say the least.
figments of our relationship displayed no control
for 10 y e a r s and 5 m o n t h s
like a gunshot from miles away he moved in
I was five-year-old velocity girl, he was the seven-year-old starfighter pilot
one mission to shrink the world
we promised the stars we’d be a dream
much to my dismay we lost our armour of hope
last ever, young love, heels are now over head
I hear your heart cry for love
but you won't let me make it right
you were hurt, but I decided
that you were worth the fight
every night, you lock up
you won't let me come inside
but the look in your eyes
I can turn the tide
or you and your denial:
you told me, it was the distance that killed us
you made me believe, moonlight would provide the spark
you lied and said, count me in... for Eternity
and now, you make me feel like i’m sitting on the surface of the sun
or sleeping in the snow
your first kiss stole the breath from my lips
like a lovesick melody
every time I hear your voice my heart skips a beat
you are my sugar rush, my perfect kiss
my addiction that I fail to resist
I hear your heart cry for love
then you act like there's no room
room for me, or anyone
"don't disturb" is all I see
close the door, turn the key
an everything that we could be
if loneliness would move out
I'd fill the vacancy
in your heart
our telescope said “happy endings are stories that haven’t ended yet.”
so we swam in a world of tears
waiting for the storm to end
lightning and thunder made us wonder
i’d say “if there’s a rocket tie me to it.”
but you were the anchor that kept my feet on the ground
our love was an ocean.
we swam in the tears we’d cry
our love was a raging sea
you held onto me
that was your promise to the stars
you could be happy, I won’t know
you would say “save your heart, don’t give it away just yet”
while I felt like I was Miss Invisible
you would say “call me hopeless, not romantic”
followed by “its all in your imagination, dear”
all your friends would reckon that I was
“Oh so fine”
In your heart
I can tell you can fit one more.
open up make a brand new start
I don't care who's stayed before
I would raise my drink to you
but I'll stay sober just for you
I wish I had a penny for
every time she gave me those eyes
I had been with you once or twice
in my dreams
and it felt so nice
even though I could barely breath
speechless, breathless
It means I can dream about you more
wake up wake up dreaming
only leads to more and more nightmares
snap out of it
you said it in a way that showed
you really cared
like a rainstorm without the clouds I fall on him
like a phone call to warn the truth
it’s the truth to warn the lies
it’s the way she doesn't try
it’s the wink before the sligh
When I had been with him once or twice
In my dreams it felt so nice
even though I could barely breath
speechless, breathless
I'd tell you you're safe and take hold of your hand
I'll be there by your side for the rest of your life
I’d lie with you on the grass above
I'd like to change all this
I'd like to wake up from this
by your side
maybe there's hope in just one final second
a flash of her love as she waved us goodbye
you could be happy and I won't know
but you weren't happy the day I watched you go
somehow everything I own smells of you
and for the tiniest moment it's all not true
do the things that you always wanted to
without me there to hold you back
shut your eyes, I spin
you'll feel dizzy, light, and free
and falling gently
you can come and swing with me
there is a darkness deep in you
a frightening magic I cling to
the city calls our name
the scares that I hide show through my eyes
Its a been done before
yes its all been done before
but if you know
how do you get up from an all time low
I'm in pieces
It seems like peace is
the only thing I never know
how do you get up from an all time low
I can't even find a place to start
how do I choose between my head and heart
till it ceases I never know
how do you get up from an all time low
let me out
my world is spinning and
it just won't stop
I often realize i've gone too far
soo keep me hangin on
love me when it makes more sense at all
you awake me from my deepest sleep
the magic telescope only showed
a clock ticking
trainwrecks
two broken hearts
a ticking clock
the world at our feet
and Eternity before us
