The Golden Rule

My muse, you are supposed to be my journey.
You promised me a way out.
Three hour drives are three hours alone.
Three hour drives are better than our broken home.
Your lips were the softest yet,
When you promised me we'd be out west.
The most desirable hues of greens and blues,
When I knew your skin for an eternity.

And we had everything,
We had everything.
We had everything.
And then you threw it away,
and I'll never understand why.
And then they withered away,
all the flowers in your eyes.
And how could I be the same
after watching all my stars fall from the sky?
There's no light.
There's no light.

Her lips, as vermillion as burst capillaries.
Can you feel the gravity when you love me?
Do unto others as you would do unto you.
You with another, I'm what you were willing to lose.
That's what makes sweet exodus taste like pleasure.
I will reflect an end to my every endeavor.

Was it all a dream?
Was it all a dream?
Was it all a dream, and if it was can I go back to sleep.
We had everything.
We had everything.
Our memories and how you always promised me
You'd forever be mine.

And then you threw it away,
and I'll never understand why.
And then they withered away,
all the flowers in your eyes.
And how could I be the same
after watching all my stars fall from the sky?
There's no light.
There's no light.

Don't try and tell me my feelings.
Reach out and try fix me.
You've got a big mouth for such a small person.
Three hour drives are three hours alone.
Three hour drives are better than our broken home.
I have never felt so lost.
Like I let you break my heart by choice?
If you listen closely that's me forgetting
The sound of your voice.
