The Things That You Love

The things that you love Only shine in the sun When gold flakes like dust It's just never enough Collecting stones that have no purpose Tucked away beneath the surface Finding solace in the space between the glass and closing curtains Were we too late? There's never time for being selfish Will we be okay? It's just never enough The things that you love Watching heaven sing without us The lake we swam too much Held the boats but tried to drown us A distant echo A graceful mistake A vision of angels Through the eyes of a snake Were we too late? Is it so wrong to be selfish? Will we be okay? It's just never enough The things that you love Watching heaven sing without us The lake we swam too much Held the boats but tried to drown us The things that you love Only shine in the sun When gold flakes like dust It's just never enough
