Concrete

a summer ago we were inseparable 

got burns and bruises but we both still came out gold

coffee machines and so many big dreams we built beneath the house that we called home

our home

it wasn’t enough and it started to rust

we watched the future that we built just slip away

i still think of you almost every day

but there are good things in life no one can force you to take

breathe easy, it’s always my fresh blood on the concrete

take your time, i’ve never been quite able to have a mean streak

we’re both hurt, and we don’t have to talk about who hit the ground first, but

when you do, won’t you please leave just a little room for the truth

you know that i miss you

you know that i love you

you know that my mom still prays for you

you know that i miss you

you know that i love you

you know that my mom still prays for you

you know that i miss you

you know that i love you

you know that my mom still prays for you

you know that i miss you

you know that i love you

you know that my mom still prays for you
