Untitled

By Belle

If things were all ways right
And I could see without
These bandages over my eyes
I would stay up late,
Past midnight
Just to watch you fall asleep
Neatly by my side
but I had to go and change
I had to leave the lights on all night
If you're dropping names
Then I'm out like the rain
And these storm clouds rolling through
Like these stars on a clear summer night
In June...
I never had the chance to love
I never meant to say goodbye
You should know me better
I'd take the time to be safe
I'd take the time to hold my breath
But I'd rather be breathing
In sweet time with you
Then lose my grasp on all these strings
And let these feelings fly
To Gods that I prayed
Would let me have you
Never leave my side
I'd pass before
I'd watch you die.
