I'm Still Here, You're Still There

(album: The Dan Martin (Tiny Moving Parts / Victor Shores) - 2011)

Sometimes I dream
Of my teeth rotting right out my mouth and I can't talk when the glands swell
And it's so sad that I can't wake up to smell the coffee.

I know the feeling of chasing dream when falling asleep
Then once you finally wake up, nothing's changed.
I'm still here while you're still there,
The tendons on my little heart can barely stand to function.

I miss you.
It'll never change.

I want to kill myself just to fall asleep at night,
And fly high with you in the clouds
Because I swear everything was there.
Trust me.
I think I feel your fear again.

Floating down all the rivers on a leaf
Singing songs about loving while
Love is singing songs about us.
But who will ever listen?

Someday I'll grow up, I'll stay strong
I'll get the chance to let you know that time tore us apart.
The distance was the sickness, but I'll still sick.

This is what it's like to fall behind, and out of place,
All I ever wanted was to be a butterfly.
I'd do anything and I mean anything
To have you in my arms.

Like dolphins stuck in separated oceans
The forecast is ever changing
We're misplaced in different areas of time
Why oh why?
