Shimmer

Make hay while the sun is out
A shimmer to send you is all I’ve got
Die like the summer bloom
Born to be young and reborn again

The strings we’ve tied, we don’t understand
We’ve tried and we failed at it again and again
I try keeping up, I stand by
Arms spread, I stretch all angles wide
And I lose countless times
‘Cause sadness means something else to you
I’m not meant to know but a glimpse of it too

The scent of my faults hovers
Teardrops suspended a timeless while
Redo and regret every dream
And every breath headed towards staying with it
‘Cause living easy, you can’t understand
You try and you fail, both hard and unbound

Staying, waiting and moving along
We’ll tie them together
The strings we’ve undone
