lyrics

I left earth for six months.
When your feet touch air for the first time
You forget...that you are human.
You forget that your body wasn't meant to fly this high.
That all things that are high
Must come down,
And the impact left my bones covered in regret.
Covered from the filth
Of the four letter word that left my saliva;
I thought I knew what love was.
That love and passion were twin sisters,
But their children always make childish decisions;
I left my heart on your doorstep by mistake.
You left your earrings by the coffee mug on my dresser
And I called you to make the trade.
I don't blame you.
I blame myself for not tying my own shoes as a grown man.
For leaving something in your possession
That never belonged to you.
For trying to find myself in something
That didn't give birth to this flesh.
Love doesn't require completion so this letter is for me.
To look myself in the mirror and see God's creation.
To understand that all things and all life have breath,
And that everything with a heartbeat must come to an end
Asé.
