Fighting the drone of a world in rapture with a soul on paper, and chasing silly lovers down the lane.nnHiding from the rain,nThat weeps over the lonely meadows and your bashful windows; dark against the perrywinkle panes.nnI am not obliged,nTo take a breath and notice your world. And you're such a sad girl. Julietta, wouldn't you agree?nnI was seventeen,nAnd curled up inside my sadness. And every child's madness is a seed of love that never saw the sun.nnOh god, what have they done?nMisunderstanding you as such because you loved her too much. And your tired hands had given up on words.nnThis enchanted verse,nEtched upon the sky for always.nWhere the butterfly plays. So radiant, the light touching her hair.nnI would meet you there,nAnd tell you I am not ashamed to wish that I knew you so that I could just look in your eyes.nnTo see the way they shined,nMaybe subtle and maybe brilliant.nAt the least, resilient.nMaybe that was what they feared the most...nnPeople talk like they dont ever falter. And they muddle up the air with why everyone should pay attention. But everyone is only guessing. And I know I'm not any different.nAnd I don't want to be a hero. But if we shared one voice, we might tell them that they should be careful.nThat an open heart is so fragile.nIf you shout at the candle then the light goes out. It leaves you all alone and in the dark and we need you to see us. n'Cause we're trying our best to keep smiling; and we're trying our best just to be understood.nI'll hold you up because we both know sometimes we just can't seem to control it.nThen the burden will seem a bit lighter. And the sun will seem a bit brighter. And maybe it all could be different.nYeah, maybe it could have been different.
