Flare

I spent the night
In your front porch
Expecting you to notice me
'Cause I can never be happy with what I've got

I'm glad you fixed the leaks on the rooftop
I guess the stairs are much more quiet now
And I'm sure you sleep better alone

I still touch twice in our spot by the train rails
This city's name has changed a few times
For each day I've missed you

Was this meant to end from the start?
Did I chose the wrong shirt that night?
Will I ever learn to sleep alone?

And at last
Was it worth the pain for all the
Things that I'll never let go
I just hope that you don't have to leave for too long

What parts of this were real?

I hoped for an apocalypse, the earth breaking down
Tearing apart
To help the trees grow back up
When they feel they can

Once you've hit bottom rock
You have to trust your chest will hold the weight
It's a decision to make
You just take a stance
Bet on yourself for once

They haunt me at night
The mug that you gave me unpainted
The pictures we took with the sky
Just tell me that you won't leave for too long

Because I don't wanna go
I don't think this is the end
Breaking down the walls
This time I won't forget

After all
I'd rather burn down
That never getting too close to the sun
Remember to leave the blinds open
So you can see the light
