MUSIC

Felt sad in the cheese aisle. Went home and wrote this.

Bittersweet sunshine
As you drive away
No rhythm, all rhyme
I wish I could stay
I wish I could stay

Envelop my mind
Brown eyes and cheeks wet
48 hours
Blue tinge of regret
Not a moment I regret

Daring you to dare me
And wearing my heart on my sleeve
Your breath, your scent, nervous knees
Said, “I can do whatever I please”
Familiar hearts never at ease

We don’t wait for the end
Last kisses are blurry
Spirit of the stairs now
I’m always so worried

Sneak a moment with you
Silhouette, early morning
Perfectly confused
Don’t wanna be boring
Emotions come pouring

Keeping warm, arm in arm
Taking Polaroids in a barn
We jokingly reminisce
You say you live for moments like this
This will be a moment I miss

One pillow for two heads
Dreaming in major chords
This time no ambient red
We are harmony and discord
I’ve never felt your closeness more

Enclosed, safe in the night
Opaque in morning light
I know we’ll be alright in time

Nothing else left to say
Thank you, happy birthday
Your music, ever so true
Do you still like to wear blue?
Is someone else lying with you?
And do cigarettes remind you?

Now your words inspire
Images, Decembers
Though it’s been a while
You ignite the embers
Oh, I remember
I remember

Here’s the thing with the past
It lasts forever, but it never lasts
Reading palms just for laughs
I’m really glad that you looked back
It’s you I’m so lucky to know
Always sad to see you go
Where do familiar hearts go?

Me when I’m not sad in the cheese aisle (please don’t bring this up).
