Lori, i'm trying

I long to walk surefooted

But I surely wouldn't say

I know where to place

Anything but blame

Lori says I need to be

More understanding

Silver skies and fault lines

Mean nothing to me

It's all shaky ground

We're stuck in between

Skipping rocks just to feel we're

Part of some grand scheme

Create and destroy

Attempt to avoid

To live is to die

And to love is

Suicide

Could not waste a wistful grin

Waiting for lazy

Lovers and starlight wishes

To be true

So I gathered my eggs in one basket

And flew the coop

I gathered my eggs in one basket

And gave it to you

Create and destroy

Attempt to avoid

To live is to die

And to love is

Suicide

Me and the curtain fall

I'm feeling fully seen

Tears roll down

I forget the existence of

Gravity

Call me crazy

But suddenly

My thoughts are but a seed

And I'm free

Create and destroy

Attempt to avoid

To live is to die

And to love is

Suicide

I long to walk surefooted

But I surely wouldn't say

I know where to place

Anything

Lori I'm trying to be

More understanding
