World Burn

I've been lucid dreaming for the past few nights
Seeing your eyes, so blue
As I blink in the morning light
I see it all, so clear
Your fingers, tangled in mine
Standing at the sea shore, watching the waves crash in the moonlight
And I just want to kiss you, and watch the world melt away
Is that alright? Is that okay?
And I want to sing to you as the world goes up in flames,
And we'll make it through another day
The landscapes in my mind, forever changing
Painted deep red
It's all in my head
And I tell you I love you, and your smile screams you wish you did too
Eyes are flashing,
I sink into you
And I just want to kiss you, and watch the world melt away
Is that alright? Is that okay?
And I want to sing to you as the world goes up in flames,
And we'll make it through another day
Please don't leave me like this,
Lonely, please don't walk away oh
And I still remember the night we first met,
Dressed up all pretty in that little black dress,
You took my hand and we danced, I was left
Speechless
And I still remember the look on your face,
In that dimly-lit room at 2:58,
I tell you I want you, all you have to say is
So?
All I wanted was to kiss you and watch the world melt away

What If?

Grass under my feet and rainbows in my eyes
It's a different kind of peace,
Muffles the world outside
The melodies flow softly, holding the brightest secrets of my mind
Feeling inspired at twenty-past two a.m.
The ink bleeding out my veins
If I played you every song I ever wrote for you,
Would it make you fall in love?
If I played you every song I ever wrote for you,
Would it make you fall in love?
I write you letters,
Small confessions of whatever my mind thinks up
But for the better, I keep them locked in a pretty box
Do I scare you?
Does the thought of me make your blood run cold?
I'll wash away all your dirty sins and make myself your biggest one
If I played you every song I ever wrote for you,
Would it make you fall in love?
If I played you every song I ever wrote for you,
Would it make you fall in love?
If I play you every song I ever wrote for you,
You would know too much

Sunrise

Losing weight and staying up late
Worrying about what the world has become
I watch the sunrise over the city, not because I'm up early
But because I've barely slept at all
The same view out every window,
Pale concrete, brick, and mortar
I miss the wild sea breeze and the Scottish rain
Oh I'm locked up for my own good, thanking my lucky stars
That I made it back before the sickness could come in from afar
I've got the people who matter the most with me
Doing well and healthy too
But that doesn't mean I don't miss the sea or everyone and you
I spend my days overthinking everything
From coursework to the way I dress
I spend my nights counting furniture, no stars to put my mind at rest
Times are strange and it's safe to say I'm doing my best
I talk about the world with my father,
Play card games with my little brother
Always thankful for my mother keeping me sane
Oh I'm locked up for my own good, thanking my lucky stars
That I made it back before the sickness could come in from afar
I've got the people who matter the most with me
Doing well and healthy too
But that doesn't mean I don't miss the sea or everyone and you
One friend's enjoying the rain
Another's working early shifts, easing the world's pain
A third is stranded oceans away from home
I hope that we'll be alright,
'cause I miss them all with all my might
And when I turn off the lights tonight I'll dream of castles
Oh I'm locked up for my own good, thanking my lucky stars
That I made it back before the sickness could come in from afar
I've got the people who matter the most with me
Doing well and healthy too
But that doesn't mean I don't miss the sea or everyone and you
That doesn't mean I don't miss the sea or everyone and you
I watch the sunrise over the city, not because I'm up early
But because I've barely slept at all

Dreams

I had a dream you were getting married
But I didn't know the girl who was wearing the dress
You were holding my shoes like that night after the party
I still remember the way that you danced
And you'd caught a train just to surprise me
You made it on time and you did
You always keep your promises, no matter how daft
And I take it all for granted, or maybe I don't
And you, you're haunting me
Making familiar appearances in my dreams
And I, I close my eyes early
In hopes of seeing you again, do you feel it?
Listening to the crackle of static on the radio
It's my new favourite song
It's not me behind the wheel though, I can't drive
So it's you changing gears with me by your side
We're driving to nowhere, the trees rushing past,
The wind in my hair as you smile
Then things fade away, and I open my eyes,
I'm back in my bed, it's a slow demise
And you, you're haunting me
Making familiar appearances in my dreams
And I, I close my eyes early
In hopes of seeing you again, do you feel it?
Do you feel it?
Do you feel it?
Take me back to the night when you fell asleep on my shoulder, love
This time I'll hold you tight, and I'll sing you a lullaby
And wonder if I'm in your head

Thunderstorm

It's raining tonight, that doesn't happen here often
Under the stormy night sky,
I'll watch the lightning in the distance
My dog by my side, his presence comforts me
And together we'll watch the heavens melt into oblivion
Outside this bubble, there's a hurricane
But for now we'll just sit here and watch the rain
It's a moment of calm amidst the storm
I'm breathing freely for the first time in months
And as it pours, I'll sing of love
And think of all the things I haven't done because I've come home
Lightning's therapeutic,
Though you've never understood why
Said I stole your thunderstorm, but you told me I could give it a try
Apocalypse weather,
Then why do I enjoy it?
Don't know if we've got forever, I should stop thinking about it
I should stop thinking about it
I should stop, I should stop
