You took your hand from the sky.
Said you were tired of doing someone else's job.
Then the moon fell and shattered on the ground.
I said "I'm sorry for the last six months,
It's not your fault you're stronger than the sky".
The nights were darker 'til they put it back togehter.
The days were brighter though.
I thought so at least.
I climbed the clouds with you.
When it was time to take it back.
It looked awfully heavy, but you just said.
"Relax, I'm just pretending to play God...
It's a one time thing, I promise.
Besides, I can quit when I want."
And then the rain fell.
Onto our eyelashes.
We closed our eyes on that tuesday night.
And held our hands together.
But nothing ever happened and never will.
You're as human as me.
I'm as flawless as you.
Perfect is a word made up by a fool.
You can't count on page to erase all your doubt.
A few dollars won't make that broken heart any better.
A flower can't heal time.
But the truth can take lies from their pedastal and push them to the floor. You can't prove you'll miss me if you don't stay.
A pictures worth a thousand words, but your love is much more.
We can say "one day" all we want.
But I'd much rather it be "today".
You're on tip toes waiting for the sunlight.
And I can't wait for this rain to go away.
