Am I at least your friend? Hated word.
Hated word
Hated word
Hated word
Heavenward
Heavenward
[Chorus 2]
I don’t think I have Greek blood in me
But you’ve made me into a poet, I swear, cause
Heaven is the moonlight on your collarbones
The little street that leads to your house
The steps, the door, the room where I can’t go
Heaven is the place I watch you get in
As I stay in my car and weep.
Oooooh ooooh
Oooh ooooh
Ooh ooh ooh
[Ending]
You said you didn’t want this
Baby, I heard you loud and clear
But I carried your books
and I met you in our woods
Once upon a time, remember?
So forgive me and forgive me
If I, if I can’t help myself
Forget myself and hate myself
And count this as a date.
And I want to live here forever.

I sing, I write, I record. I go on stage, I come back down and crash. Rinse, repeat. October turns to November. My phone stays quiet.
