And again...

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly

But I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
'Cause I wish you were here

I'll watch the night turn light-blue

But it's not the same without you
Because it takes two to whisper quietly

The silence isn't so bad

'Til I look at my hands and feel sad
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly

I'll find repose in new ways

Though I haven't slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia
Chills me to the bone

But drenched in vanilla twilight

I'll sit on the front porch all night
Waist-deep in thought because
When I think of you I don't feel so alone

As many times as I blink

I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight

When violet eyes get brighter

And heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again

And I'll forget the world that I knew

But I swear I won't forget you
Oh, if my voice could reach
Back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear
Oh darling, I wish you were here

It's a comfort listening to this again. A reminiscence of the turbulent heart that flutters without a direction. Sometimes I feel like giving up, sometimes, just sometimes I know I can't bring myself to do so. It's a pain that weighs up my pride. Hurts deep down but I can't decide for myself what's the best for me, neither can I afford to lose this ecstasy. For all I know, I don't wanna embrace myself once again to go through that stage I reckon to be hell. Suck to be stuck between the lines of fear and guilt. So, whatever...
