.​.​.​They Looked Like Sunsets

lyrics

I should have known
That you were going to
Fall on to that mattress
Lying on shards of glass
Soaking in the rain
While Autumn wind billows up my dress
As your voice starts to crack
I can feel your mind start to slip
Please hang on
For both our sakes

Staring upwards at a cold Texas sky
Losing vulnerability
Tell me who are we
But I will hold out hope
That we will become whole
This year will pass but this memory will stay

I will wilt in late October
I’ll do it again and do it all over

Sleep now
Buried deep in ground
Holding hands and worried faces
Cradled safe embrace the changes

Follow your forgotten mothers
Trace the spine to its source
Find checkered memories
Pick a side
Who do you want to be

And I still don’t know what my decision was
But you guided us both
And I am grateful for that
And we will never be one
And I will never be whole
But I will always love you
