And when the storms come

everyday before they'd wake up
you'd sneak out
through your broken bedroom window
it made a funny sound
you'd wear your favorite red tshirt
with the hole in the shoulder
no one ever seemed to notice
a single word that you told them
but that's alright, you'l be just fine
one day the sun had burned down
the cloudless sky
you're just a kid with a store bought haircut
all you could do was cry
but that's alright, you'll be just fine
the storms they came and took your best friend
now you spend the days
walking around in your basement
remembering the ways
you used to laugh
and collect your favorite photographs
but now you can't
'cause you hate the past
and that's not alright
and no you're not doing just fine
then the wind came and swallowed up
all your worry and broken luck
you kept it on your steps all these years
now it's finally out of your hands
then you laugh until you cry
at the years that have passed you by
and a smile makes its way to your face
it's been a while now, hope it stays
now everynight before you close those eyes
you kiss the sky goodbye
just in case
to be safe
just in case you don't wake up
just in case the world blows up
or maybe if your heart decides to stop
or maybe if the sky falls on itself
and what if the ocean drowns
what if all the planes fall down
and when the tired buildings get up
decide to leave this town
at least i'll have said goodbye
now everyday when you wake up
you don't seem to mind
the big red sun and how it shines
right in your eyes
it's just like you
alone, hanging in some gravity pull
waiting for time to catch up
it's 7:30 and i've had enough
the wind's blowing outside my window
i can tell 'cause the trees show me so
with their beautiful branches
i could swear they were dancing
arm in arm like leaf in leaf
i've got you and you've got me
and when storms come
we'll send them home
and we'll be alright
yeah we'll be just fine
