Falling, falling...

I was afraid to close my eyes,
I was afraid that I would I...
Stop breathing...
The beat of my own heart shook like glass,
Everything made of gold turned to brass,
then spilling colors...

I took one step closer to the stars,
two steps away from my heart,
I marveled in my own mystery,
I only wanted to see what you could see,
In me.

I was afraid to break open my chest,
I was afraid of what could be hiding,
I looked at you and you seemed so calm,
You said "Sometimes the monsters aren't who you think they are."
You leave your own scars.

Long nights that ended too soon,
Everything, all roads led back to you,
Red lips, driving home at one a.m,
You were right about who I am,
Falling, falling to the edge,
Falling, falling like birds in the wind,
Am I crazy for thinking like this?
Sinking ships, yeah, sinking sand,
I sank...
I sank...
I sank...
To let you in.
To let you in...
