Horse Shoes and Handgranades

You stole my wedding day...
but I don't mind
and just ignore the sets
and camera angles...
and just concentrate on what keeps you alive

and all this time...
you should have been wasting... spent wasting away

Almost there
Almost there
Almost there


To simple discribe...
but we'll still try...
and I can't help explain it
'cept to say it's like the distance
on your first attempt to fly...

We're trading old photos
and ashes
and better days...
FOR FLAMES!!!
OHHH OHHHHH
So as you're here breathing,
and in between sleeping...
don't...don't forget about dreaming...
No more missed sunsets
and watched second hands...
No more hearts broken
and botched master plans

Just horse shoes and handgranades...and hearts

So don't forget to ask important questions like...
can fireflys and sattelites collide?
And keep eachother closer in December...
with the wind and rain and bitter cold outside
and youth will always find another lover...
and you'll be left with with what you have inside...

Almost there
Almost there
Almost there...
"I'll Ride the wave where it takes me. I'll Hold the pain. RELEASE ME!"
