THUNDER
I have dreams of an ambulance ride
Eyes open, did they get there in time?
Now the lights are on and I know it's not true
But when did I last speak to you?
My hand shakes as I reach for the number
My lungs storm over and my heart beats thunder
When I'm there, what would I say?
I'll hope for better words on the way
I got my life in front of me, but I don't want to see the end
If you're not right beside me
Surely there's another page to read
I'm on my way to the seventh floor
I'm pounding on your door
I'm alive but I don't know what for
I don't know you anymore
You're a universe not yet discovered
You're a sunset of a thousand colors
There's some stories I've been dying to read
If you'd want to stay close to me
And I'll stay awake for as long as it takes
But now I speak just to fill the space
Maybe you don't need me much at all
And I'll all be is an unreturned call
You're an ocean, a seascape, a skyline, a summer
A memory, a shadow, you're the sun on the water
You're ashes, my blood, I should have said something sooner
What a treasure to hold your gaze
But what did you ever have to hide?
Run your race and I'll wander mine
You don't owe me a second of time
Live your life and I'll suffer mine
But I think your story needs a few more chapters
I'll sit on the steps and hold you after
You decide what's worth your time
When you decide what's worth your life
I don't know you, I don't know you
I don't know you anymore
