candles and wicks

I haven't posted a blog in about a month, nice. Here's a song I wrote, you can listen to the acoustic rough draft I did today. Just a little one track recording.

.candles and wicks.

its so nice to meet you
i dont know if i will need you
all i know is that my lungs
have opened up and i can breathe again
and i know its alarming
the rate in which we're falling
for each other and the way that we smile

because nobody wants to be the guy
to put his heart on a paper plane
just to watch it go and die
before it flies
before it ever gets to know the sky
im forced to think about it every night

its so nice to meet you
i dont know if i will need you
all i know is that we both
should stick around
in case love comes about
if it does we will embrace it
they can see it in our faces
shining bright into the night
and paints the sky
like the northern lights
and i know it seems silly but
im so use to killing love
that i forgot what it means

so if this relationship is in the dirt
remember we planted the seeds
into the ground and gave it birth
i know it hurts but we cant live
without the common doubt
of every word that comes out of our mouths

you're so perfect
and that being the case
you are the candle im the wick
and we will sit inside
and melt beside
and blend into
the floor and waste away
like candles do

its so nice to meet you
i dont know if i will need you
all i know is that my eyes
have opened up and i can see again
and i know its alarming
the rate in which we're falling
but i've been through this before
i dont know about you
but im packin' parachutes
and heart for us to land inside
where we're bound to scream and fight
and pretend nothing is alright

just promise me that after sex
we can smoke a cigarette
we can never ever leave this bed
