Close your eyes
Forget the smoke
Breathe in fresh air
Girl tell me
How did we get there?

Rain dancing over your hood
Bricks scrape your back
Got your music on blast
They forgot your name
But your words are not mud

Your strength is gilded by blood
You’re seeking guidance in stars
But those stars explode
Believe me when I speak
It’s the beauty in the aftermath

That shapes your bones
Those stars are just one in a million
Destined to end
When there’s nothing left to grasp ...
