Lyrics:

The air cut cold like swallowing diamonds,
turned my imperfections into a crown made of ivory,
when I found you in a strawberry, I sunk my teeth into you,
so easily recognizable just from the chip in my tooth.

Do you still think it's beautiful? x2

I'd wake to marigolds when you'd sleep with your back to me,
stole your sunflower smile straight from under the bed sheets,
where I'd climb your limbs like the branches of trees,
when at the end of the day it would always be you and me.

Do you still think it's beautiful? x2

I washed in water I swear came from both the coasts,
half embarrassed, half haunted by the places I miss the most.
These days are filled with you darling,
this absence screaming your name.

You spoke few words I don't believe I'd call your own,
I hung the truth beneath your portico,
you've been looking for me in the boys you've been seeing.
(Do you still think it's beautiful? 'Cause darling you're beautiful.)

I am the apex, you'll reach the climax,
and he won't love you anymore,
get you thinking about the boy who left those words at your apartment door.
(Do you still think it's beautiful? 'Cause darling you're beautiful.)

(And they're knocking now.)

We turned our backs, in debt to unfamiliar beds.
(We turned our backs, from debt to unfamiliar friends.)
We were restless and ambitious,
thinking we could still be friends.
(These days are filled with you darling, this absence screaming your name.)

I can't follow now, wherever you may tread,
I am laced in tattered shoes we shared,
It's something I can't forget, maybe it's something time can mend.
(These days are filled with you my darling, this absence screaming your name.)

Do you still think it's beautiful? 'Cause darling you're beautiful.
(These days are filled with you darling, this absence screaming your name.)

(Do you remember the highline?
The flowers pressed on the page?
I could have sworn you had been there.
But now you're miles (walking) away.)

Highline

A couple of songs I completely butchered one night at LIU Post. I had fun though, so there's that.
