The Same

I stepped out today

Where I went, I can’t really say

Couldn’t shake feeling hollowed

Pretty sure I’m being followed

I called every single phone

Still surprised that no one’s home

I stopped and yelled your name

A continuation of the same

I stepped out today

Where I went, I can’t really say

Couldn’t stand the feeling anymore

Never opened a window after closing that door

Head for the hills in a vane escape

I’m not surprised it’s covered in red tape

I stopped and yelled out your name

A continuation of the same

Come outside and sit beneath the sun

Come outside and fix what’s been undone

Out here where we know each other’s thoughts

We can be all the things that we are not

Wade and wallow in pristine tides

Allow the world to just subside

We stopped and each offered a hand to claim

A hopeful continuation of the same

Come outside and sit beneath the sun

Come outside and fix what’s been undone

No one ever said that it was going to be effortless

But if you trust in me, we can forget that mess

I’ll jump over the moon, if it suits you

Put on your shoes, and walk miles to you

We stopped and each offered a hand to claim

A hopeful continuation of the same

I returned home today

Where I’d been I can’t really say

Seeing the world made me think of you a bit

How I’d rather be with you, than tangled up in it

Wrapped up in the unending seasons

Struggling to find just one of life’s reasons

Their faces meant nothing and are easily replaced

I was haunted until your touch erased

I wander in cold but warm up to your flame

Ever thankful that you remain the same
