lyrics

lock me in your arms I wanna be in your parentheses
 (Just like this you see)
 Trapped inside the clause an afterthought for only you to read
Veins on wrists in purple twists im jungle vines so well exposed
 My mouths a sieve
the sediment it catches is what I can’t show
Weighing down my world you’re quite the heavy ghost  
You’re Such a quiet host
 Take me to the Firework
finger painting the sky 
The night cracks loud and shows so proud the colors that i hide Firework
finger painting the sky  with the colors that i hide
Oh my journal is no more
my pages torn but that's alright 
I'll still chase the paragraphs illuminating last nights sky
I fear my internal drum and that just makes it beat faster 
my pulse tells me I'm alive but I am barely its master
Wish you weren’t my world you’re quite the heavy ghost  
You’re such a quiet host
But give me just one
 Firework
finger painting the sky
 The night cracks loud and shows so proud the colors that i hide Firework
finger painting the sky
with the colors that i hide
XO XO 
My wheels spin like anxious zeros 
Oh what a sight 
Though I see in black and white
