Saving Grace

Darling
No balance in the retrograde
I'm lost in your constellation
So far from home
But wrapped in your arms
I know I'm never alone

Your lips shining in the starlight
I know this is the closest ill ever be
To being saved
Our smiles hidden in the moonlight

I've swam in the bluest oceans
Risked life and limb for a rush
All for an idea of obscured meaning
But I've never fallen into the sky
Not defined by a crush
To say that I like you
wouldn't be enough

No angel I wanna see
No girl to get the best of me
When my head gets too loud
Walking off the ledge into the clouds
Clarity to be had
And she knows it best
That she's better than the rest

She said she could shut the world out
Seduced my pen and wrote me a song
Now that's the cadence I'm talking about

I did it for the stress
She did it for the voices
I did it to let go
She did it to turn my past
Into something I used to know

I wrote her a serenade
About how we are a supernova
Just a couple of renegades
With no rules to live by
We preferred it this way
And as we grow old
The pens and notes took control
And continue to fill in the rest of our days
