a love song i wrote about someone very special

two corpses slow dancing by mayabee
Im stuck awake, haven’t slept tonight, fight or flight
Researching dangers of breathing in pesticides
Convince myself that ill be alright, i’ll be fine
Thinking some more now I’m certain I’m gonna die

Watching the sunrise feels terribly different
When you’ve spent the whole night awake
Staring at timers and stepping in tiles

If dying is the only thing life guarantees
Then I hope that you’ll spend your life dying with me
Let them dig up our bones
In a few hundred years
And discover our love as we held one another dear

Corpses entangled in each other’s arms
Let them wonder about all the
Things that went wrong
But our remnants don’t show just how
Perfect it was we were
Two dying people both
Hopelessly stuck in love

I know that you know that everything’s purposeless
Nihilist point of view makes it all seem worthless
Your battery’s running out, mine is corroding
Time ticking quicker now, you and I both know it

I feel compelled just to
Stare at me feet but
Your eyes somehow pull me away
Walk next to me please and hold my hand

Cuz if there’s 
Meaning to life then I hope that it’s you cuz
I’d spend my whole life getting lost in this view
In this cavernous maze that we call our existence
Now you lead the way we can travel the distance

Together we’ll find out that life is much more
Than an infinite spiraling series of doors
Because walking alone can be awfully bleak but
It all becomes worth it when it’s you and me

That was so far back, I just can’t recall
I’ve trudged up mountains, there’s hills I have crawled
Under the waves I have found my new home
Broken and barely breathing at all
I hear the memories sing in the wind
I hear the memories sing in the wind

Cut all of my ties and moved to a cabin
Built with the wood that I foraged from the forest
Come to a clearing, across I glide
I felt the water in tears I cry
I feel forgiveness under my skin
I feel forgiveness rush from within

There’s sights you have seen that stand taller than I
I’m just a stream in your ocean eyes
I was something different like rain in July
You grabbed all of your things and went back inside

You went for a drive
You went for a drive
You turned up the music when you passed the place he died

You went for a drive
You went for a drive
You turned up the music to keep the past alive

You went for a drive
You went for a drive
You turned up the music to keep the past alive

rain in july (Demo)

Last year 
I took LSD 
And I saw you 
Staring back at me 

Still there? 
When they touch my thigh? 
Still watching? 
When its late at night?

If you were in the sky 
I think that I (I think that I)
Would’ve checked there by now

But clouds give way to shape 
That you create
A message from the ground 

Honey do you ever think about me 
When you're out with your friends 
And I’m not there?
Honey do you ever think about me 
When you're out there?
