So this is based on a super brilliant song called Sorry and I think (I think) it's by Maria Mena? But I'm not entirely sure. Fabulous song, you should totally check it out. And review please. And don't favorite if you're not going to review it because you obviously don't like it enough to comment. (Sorry it's just a pet peeve of mine. :D)
She falls in love like the tears drip from her lashes
So many at first that she thinks she just may drown
Until they fade away into mascara stains on her cheeks
Covered by the caked up second skin she clings onto
---
And she's reaching for the stars again
The unreachable blinking stars and she thinks she'd be okay if she could just hold one
She's not dressed for the weather
Her cashmere v-neck isn't meant to fight icy nights
And the rips in her faded jeans let the wind cut through her
Flip flops don't protect her from much of anything
But she doesn't think she needs much protecting anyways
---
The playground is only illuminated by the moonlight
And the swing creaks creaks creaks as she sways back and forth
She doesn't go for height anymore
She knows now that she'll never be able to touch the sky
---
She knows she must be breaking when none of it comforts her anymore
Not the swings or the slide or the tunnel
And she's too tall to climb any of it anymore
She wishes that the night would stop suffocating her
She wishes she wasn't alone
---
She knows she shouldn't
He told her
He fucking told her that he couldn't love her
But she calls him anyways
He tells her that's he's on his way
Shouldn't victory taste sweeter than this?
---
The swing creaks creaks creaks as she sways back and forth
She watches as he walks towards her
His curls giving a halo effect in the moonlight
She really wishes he could be her angel
Because she doesn't think she'd need to touch the sky anymore
---
He doesn't talk
Just takes the swing next to her
And they creak creak creak together
Her tears slip down her cheek and onto the steel
She wonders if one day enough of her tears will have fallen here to make it turn into rust
Ashes to ashes
She thinks she'll crack long before the metal
---
"I need you"
It's a whisper
And his eyes close tighter
But she walks over to him and throws her lips onto his
Because she only knows how to self destruct
---
He grabs her wrists
"I'm sorry"
He's sorry he can't love her
Sorry that she can't be the girl
The girl with neon sunglasses
And shirts with funny sayings
She can't be the girl he fell in love with
Her curly haired best friend
The one that lays in a grave
---
He kisses her forehead and leaves
They always leave her, now don't they?
( Come back Caity, we need you )
