3005
fight after fight but the potential tops it all
rage after rage but the chemistry tops it all
inevitable connection
but we hurt one another
architects of our own destruction
arsonists to our own fires
fires we can't put out
no one can
not even the rain.
skinny love.
detrimental love.
but if it ends now I know I will have not seen the last of you
I know I'll haven't felt the last touch from your shaky hands
seen the last look from your ocean deep blue eyes
I'll haven't tasted the last kiss from your cigarette burnt lips
because we kiss in such a way that isn't real
in a way that makes everyone question their own love.
and you have such a light,
that makes everything grow within you
and I will not fight any harder,
not for anyone
if this is it
together until 3005, you said
but maybe it's that I'll see you again,
in 3005.
but look into my eyes, I know you feel me
do you see just brown
or the graveyard misery that lies within me
and lately I've been trying not to notice when my heart picks up the pace,
because it's more of an avalanche than a downpour and I can't hold back the race.
but I know something real when I feel it
and if one more person asks me if I love you I'll have to tell you
but for now let's slow down the race,
because if we don't make it what's left to face
no matter what we have each other
an indescribable completion we give one another
so if it's best I'll wait
and it's okay that if sometime along that wait I die
because I know,
I'll see you in 3005.
