By Your Side (The Ignorance Between Us)

if you have to ask why we haven't come together,
the only answer is ignorance

there is a universe right outside our doors,
hearts trapped inside yearn to fly

i can see your name forming above my eyes,
planets and stars shining

inside my lonely cabin I have no wings
to send me near, by your side

asteroids, flung shrapnel, pierce tender skin
air I breathe is too thin

if you hear me calling,
i need your eyes
if you see me falling,
know I tried fly
heart yearns ascend your heaven
where we could unify,
stuck in strongholds captured,
begging forgiveness of mankind

when I breathe in this black air,
pink lungs fill clear, inhale your light

if you have to question why so dark here,
the only truth is ignorance

a universe pulsing right outside my door
and I’m a wingless soul who cannot fly

until I can feel you by my side.


*Heart* Heart stay strong
I need them to see you beating
when they come.
