lyrics

there’s something about seeing a daytime moon
seeing the stars in the afternoon that feels good
even though they aren’t supposed to be there

it’s like seeing your face in a crowded place
on the other side of town and I think,
“what the hell do you think you’re doing here?”

I tell you one day I am leaving
and I am never coming back
you ask me how my heart’s still beating
I say I’m trying to get on track

just like the way your eyes take time
adjusting to the dark
I’m trying to calibrate the difference
but I keep staring at the spark

show me how to be still without bending to will
how to set the sky on fire and then
how to catch the falling sunlight in my hands

I need to know how to feel allowed to want the things I want
and I need you to show me a person who understands

I tell you one day I am leaving
and I am never coming back
you ask me how my heart’s still beating
I say I’m trying to get on track

just like the way your eyes take time
adjusting to the dark
I’m trying to calibrate the difference
but I keep staring at the spark

why don’t you meet me where I am
instead of taking me to where you think you are
before I tell you I am leaving
and I am never coming back
