Frozen snow cracks beneath my feet And I feel every wrong I ever inflicted Sweet scented smoke fills my lungs And all I taste is what you could've meant to me If not for growing up, or moving on Or oceans I can't cross I'll take to pen and paper Stroke these metal strings To express my hopes, my dreams, my loss I wish I had an affinity for photographs Or how they look in black and white, stuck to my wall A fictional storyboard of memories and happy times Might pull me out of drowning pools in my head And I am waking up, I'm changing I am constantly in flux One moment happy to be me The next just praying to be us And the pavement underneath me shines Like glitter on the page of homemade Christmas cards From much loved friends Your star begins to rise Well, rise up to the surface But don't climb up too high Cause I like you fallen Frozen snow has turned to ice It catches me off guard, and I am slipping Past darkened windows, and empty cars With just my shadow for company And I will bask in my redundancy As the lyrics write themselves Then my fingers pick a tune from this guitar I am blinded by the streetlights Like a deer on country lanes And I am falling I'm falling
