I got the letter that you wrote and it was typically distant
While I read it I retraced your footprints
Searching for signs in your words and lines
But time has since severed ties that bind
Maybe you only get one shot and maybe I missed it
I miss you I wish you were here with me now
I remember my time with you in you all that we had been through
These memories are something I still cling to
I catch glimpses in the faces of strangers
The strange thing I face is the same thing on all of their faces
Like were all wearing a mask
And everyone has got a someone who haunts their past
This elegy is just a conical concerning us
Coauthored in each other call it love call it trust
I recite it in my sleep when I dream you back to me
Whether or not you’re in my arms I’ll always set you free
Reminisce walking down these streets
These days we don’t even speak
I think about you when I’m on my own
I think about how much I’ve grown
I’ll kill the memory if you do too
You hold me back like I do you
Another break in this space of time
All it does is just remind me
Since we last spoke I think I wrote a novel
Let me sum it up it goes babe I miss you
And I could say it in a million ways write a million songs
On a million albums it’ll always come out wrong
If I told you I was drowning would you throw me out a rope
Even if I said don’t I’d prefer to drown?
Would you hold your ground while I scrambled for mine?
Would you dive in with me just to spend some time?
You were my refuge when it rained I would run to you for shelter
When the weather pressure built up I would hide inside your cellar
The sunnier the days became the more we tried to run
Till it happened that we both struck out and killed the sun
For what its worth the world is your and what’s in it
And if I give you space can I one day come and visit
If it’s not too much to ask can I reserve a piece a sky in your heart?
Just to part you can set the limit
