Do I still inspire you?
When the journey grows dark
your mind wanders
Like the stories they told
where love never falters,
and here we are drowning;
our road has flooded into a river
Remember when you were born?
Well of course you dont.
I think if that day never came
my life would be so different now
Still living in that dark house
looking out a window,
cold moon shining,
I swear I’d still know to think of you
But who was I to give you love?
I know I knew you well,
but to give what I never had…
Remember the days where we hid our love?
Remember how that meant so much to us?
We’d stare at the stars until they’d fall from the sky
We always knew we were meant for so much more
My skin was always golden, I hated being inside that house,
then you’d touch me and it’d burn like a hot stovetop
The night I cried in your backseat and knew I wasn’t enough
You said your love would never die
I believed you, we’d live on no matter what,
we’d grow older and hold on to our love
But now I feel you slipping away
We always wanted one thing and that was to leave
Our homes are gone from our minds and a million miles away
It never occurred to us that one day
we’d have to find our place in the distance
I just want to keep moving
The roads are so long
I haven’t found what I came for
I want to see it all
You want the family
your daddy left you for
with the wife that could provide happiness
but you should know
I never want to live inside that house
