Catch My Breath

Before I leave, give me a second to catch my breath
Kissed the hand of the girl I love before I left
But I won’t let her down
Blast off, leave this world. x2
Before I leave give me another second to catch my breath
Look around at the world that I’ve lived
Think about my childhood home and how I’ll never see it again, oh
Blast off, Oh.
(do it again!)
Before I leave, give me another second to catch my breath
To think about all the ways this could end
But now I'm star-bound–– and I'm afraid
Blast off, oh. x2
[But now I’m never coming back to this spinning, round reality
A giant ball of dust and dirt held in place by gravity
Hollow like a bell, I can hear it ringing out to me
Fly out to the stars, the facade is dead.]
Blast off,
Blast off.

Blanket

Cut the chain
I'll float away
Everything will fade
To varying shades of grey.
Castaway, floating on my sea
Drowning in my surroundings
Beneath this blanket I'll lie
And sleep the days away.

Drown

I'm hopeless, I'm flailing, and shaking, I sweat in your arms.
Assuage me, I'm crying, my tears forever on your sleeve.
I'm stuck here, grounded, while the rain beats hard on my back.
Now I'm drowning, and you're crying,
But how can I save you when I can't even save myself
-
Now please, look in my eyes. Ain't this poetry?
You have such pretty eyes. Draw them close, entangle them with mine.
