People say the stars shimmer

in winter that’s so bright

but why aren’t they tangible in sight? so

reaching out for the sunlight

to feel you sink into my veins but

the city’s painted blue.

 

Remember the day the Earth shower it‘s rain for you?

the fragrance of petrichor is new but

over the cloudy tactile air I breathe through, the

frosty colours of youth

when it pines I know it’s you.

 

Whenever you come sink in my skin

adrenaline and fear creeps in

can snowflakes and hail ever coexist?

 

Whenever you come sink in my skin

I leave, again, again, again,

till I return again.

 

You remember when you said I’d

meet no other like you

heaven knows you were the detriment

to my soul and sky.

You remember when you asked me

why try to catch rainbows

but you knew, please, you knew, why I can’t walk away

 

Just let me breathe for once

Just let me breathe for once

You know that there’s no us

You know that there’s no us

Just let me breathe for once

 

In the darkest night the chill hits right

don’t know if it makes me numb or alive

every time you call my name and I

realize that I was never alright

but I see now a new year’s ahead

the dark no longer devours the light

running through your blood and you’ll have

the courage to breathe and stay alive..
