• As It Is When It Was

you walked in the garden
with ghosts tangled up in your hair
with shadows of i'm sorrys
following your footsteps
as you walk down the stairs

your green eyes are emeralds
except when you cry they are grey
i can't stand the way that you're
holding my gaze so i'm
sorry, my darling, for turning
i'm turning away

there's parts of me tucked under rocks by the river
and a part of me moored off the coast on the sea
and the place that's the farthest, well that's where my heart is
and i'm waiting for someone to find it and send it to me

a patient surrender
as time it seeps into our veins
i'm writing from somewhere
but i can't quite remember the name

i think i forgot something over the ocean
and i let something blow away on the breeze
and the place that's the farthest, well that's where my heart is
and i'm waiting for someone to find it and send it to me

my armies are stationed
but you say you're ready for sleep
i thought about fighting it
but deep down i know that i'm
something that no one can keep

my pinwheel thoughts spinning
like needles on compasses do
i mapped out the words and
i planned the maneuvers but
maps can mislead and we
both know that plans can fall through

i was lookin in all the wrong places for answers
and got caught up trying to find a release
and now i'm trying my hardest to find where my heart is
but if you find it first would you please keep it safe til you're with me
