Salutatorian

The other day, you whispered in my ear
A secret told that no one wants to hear
You said it sharply like broken plastic
As we waltz through a window screen
Breathe in, breathe out, we're underwater
Drowning in a sense of innocence today
But tomorrow we'll feel lighter
As our sun sets on its final take

The other day, I whispered in your ear
A fallacy attempt to your defeat
I said it softly but there's nothing to break the fall
Only a god could know the last days to a foe
Why couldn't I, couldn't I trust myself
To find, oh to find, the safety straps?
We're trying, we're dying, and we're looking
To get a way to know how to be dismayed
We measure ourselves by our selfless love
Then compare the missing parts to our shame
The way you told me things will have to change
I knew it came through but I was too late

Breathe in, breathe out, we're underwater
Drowning in a sense of innocence today
But tomorrow we'll feel lighter
As our sun sets on its final take
We measure ourselves by our selfless love
Then compare the missing parts to our shame
The way you told me things will have to change
I knew it came through but I was too late
