"i can't promise i will heal you,
but if you want to,
i will try"
look at us now.
we have crashed and burned,
and set the world on fire.
look at us now.
even the most determined rain
cannot stop the ashes of our love
from dancing in the wind.
this fire will never end
until the safest place in the world
has burned down to nothing,
and become poems rushing to meet the wet earth.
look at us now.
we laughed at the clock tick against us,
but we never took a minute
to learn how to say goodbye.
look at us now.
so much to say to each other,
in languages neither of us speak.
our only hope is to watch as the rain cries,
begging for forgiveness
while our tears turn into fire in our eyes.
look at me now.
i know the right words,
but only you know the song.
look at you now.
you know the way i want to be kissed,
but only i know how to say goodbye.
but if you want to,
i will try"
