Waterfall - STARDUST

Sometimes I wish all of your thoughts were written on the wall

Eye piercingly bright and red, it's not easy to fall 

It was clandestine, all the times you gave me a piece of your mind

Under an invisible cloak, far away from the world you were all mine

In all our conversations even when we put fires to shame 

I felt like a ghost, floating over us cursing you in despair

It's the butterflies that still adore you and make me want to look past it all

But their wings as brittle as icicles don't know they've flown into a waterfall

At the waterfront I cursed your pensiveness

It made every room feel empty even with a 100 people there

You're an enigma of emotion drowning in an ocean of feeling

I don't mean to be malevolent but I'm getting a little to tired of swimming

In all our conversations even when we put fires to shame 

I felt like a ghost, floating over us cursing you in despair

It's the butterflies that still adore you and make me want to look past it all

But their wings as brittle as icicles don't know they've flown into a waterfall

I envy the momentum that has carried me this far

It doesn't know and doesn't ever want to stop

You're every rock that has obstructed my steady stream 

But it always leads me back to you, and I want to get clean 

You became one with the earth but you used to be mine

Your absent minded composure and your half hearted disclosure left you resigned

I'm sober enough now to ignore the faint scent of temptation 

I'm broken enough now to understand your indiscretion

In all our conversations even when we put fires to shame 

I felt like a ghost, floating over us cursing you in despair

It's the butterflies that still adore you and make me want to look past it all

But their wings as brittle as icicles don't know they've flown into a waterfall
