Joshua

Joshua's a gemini
He broke my heart wish
I was too preoccupied to fall apart
Certain he was God sent
The sweetest sentences
Funny how my world could end in silence

Too naive to believe
His glow was all but fire
Too cold to get close to
So I loved him through the wires
He calloused my sweet dreams
Into sleepless nights
That was all until he vanished in time

Had to tell my mother when
She found my cold heart
Lying in a trash bin on our yard
All my friends are pessimists
But I find solace
Riding in your front seat till morning

It's late night at stoplights
You ask what's in my head
And I heard what you told me
But I change the subject
We ride past my address
The night a medicine
By the time it's the morning
My mind is quiet
It's late night at stoplights
You ask what's going wrong
But I'm a tired old liar
And I hum that Bonnie song
We ride on in silence
But I see you're catching on
By the time it's the chorus
You nod and sing along

There's a bitterness and a mellow sting
It was always in vain
Yeah, it was always in vain
And all the blood that we shed was only red
Never mind all of the romanticizing

Joshua's a gemini
He broke my heart wish
I was too preoccupied to fall apart
