I Never Knew You

You're always dying inside that much closer to home

On a crowded street corner surrounded by people all alone

Pain in the heart

rain in the dark

the womb is glum and bitter

She walks around the corner

it's like she brought the sun with her

Then everything just brightened up

I couldn't make this up

My fingers in my eyes as she walked by like I was waking up

And so many words

I couldn't string a sentence together to bother her

I instantly forgot all my plans and started to follow her

It's like the sky opened and God handed you directly to me

I know it sounds crazy but so is life

I'm sinking

And feeling like your heart is beating solely for me

Your legs are long and toned

you must be walking home

I love the way your lips move when you're talking on your phone

Intoxicating

truly due to your impurities

Plague every thought of you while I'm trailing you like you're security

Lost

we couldn't know our paths would cross but time knew it

Feet sticking out the window

a opportunity climbing through it

Pain for sale

looking to find a new taker

Chance to speak blown

when you looked at me I looked in the newspaper

Because the sky opened and God handed you directly to me

I know it sounds crazy but so is life

I'm sinking

And feeling like your heart is beating solely for me

I'm miles out of my way

creepy

I want more

Was gonna turn back but you stuck your key in your front door

I'm standing across the street

stars that aligned us to meet

Standing outside with your trash feeling incomplete

My finger aching for your doorbell like a random blog

Instead I lurk outside in the cold like an abandoned dog

Perish the thought

you should cherish the words that I got in my mouth

The only words that can truly explain how I got in your house

Because the sky opened and God handed you directly to me

I know it sounds crazy but so is life

I'm sinking

And feeling like your heart is beating solely for me

Unlikely

impossible

I couldn't dream to think it

There's something happening between us you can't deceive

I'm so in over my head I've learned to breathe in it

Your eyes are screaming and you're saying no baby to me

If there was a way out I think you would've taken it

My hands and arms are the only way that you can leave

Face to face for the first time

you feel what I'm feeling

Selfishly no longer breathing because of me
