when i seem fine,

i'm not.

when i hug you goodbye,

i'm dying inside.

when i call you

i'm wishing i were there.

when i say i'm sleeping

i'm really crying myself to sleep.

i just don't have the guts to tell you.

not everything

needs a deadline

and i've never been so sure of something

or so ashamed that i'm hesitating.

i've never been so eager

or so reclusive.

because i know i will never have enough heart

to give to you

to deserve yours.

the most important things

will only be said once

i met a man once. his feet were in the sky,

and he walked where no one did.

but his heart and mind were grounded strong,

his feelings and thoughts were hid.

he kept like this for quite some time

but he got tired fast.

his feet fell down, his head flipped up

and his heart just could not last.

For this, I say fly.

Be free, my friends.

Lift your feet from off the ground.

And when your feet can't take you away,

keep your mind held skyward bound.

how quickly comes insanity

how loudly do we land

be loud

or not at all

i'd rather be your convenience

than your regret

our screens have convinced us

that the cold wind and the pain of fever

are all suffering, all unnatural.

yea, well maybe.

but is it more natural

to laugh at death?

to hide from the sun?

to keep love in our heads

rather than our hands?

do you love me?

I don't love you

yet

the one time you call

will be the time i let it ring.

and the one minute you tell me i'm worth it

will be the minute i tell myself i'm not.

and the one second you decide that you can't live without me.

will be the second i decide that i can't live

because i've always been without you.

run out and meet life

before it's too late.

it's been waiting just for you

and it won't wait forever.
