You’re not thinking
I’m not thinking
Once strong
now a loosing fight
This happens all the time
We just can’t seem to get it right
When it comes to temptations
We stumbled upon forever in conversation
And how much we don’t deserve one other
Just pure unwavering frustration
The measure of our bond was consistent
How can you be so passive with all of this distance
But it’s not you is it?
It’s the universe sky’s
Always coming for all I own
Like it’s never satisfied
Seemed like we finally got to turn nothing into something
Watched Fall sweep in and change the color of the trees
The world took your smile like a bad disease
It’s clear that the universe has been so angry with me
But no idea what it all mean?
