Rafael:
ships are
for sinking
bridges for burning
when can i come back when can we go back
I don't believe you when you say that there's something more than our days
wait back up back up
don't say what you can't take back
this isn't what you wanna say
and i'll leave you alone once you leave me be
i'll leave you alone once you abandon my thoughts
wait back up back up
don't say those things
you oughta be ashamed of your lack of faith
i'm haunted by the possibility that our bodies won't feel each other and our eyes won't see the beauty that is becoming of me, becoming of me and you
those nights they are bound to reoccur , i will not rest for a single day
because
that is my only hope, my only dream
but the nights no liar
and its been talking to me
speaking of regret and shame
it shares it secrets underneath the trees
as i lie so confused by change
loving
sinking
you are lost
make no mistake
drunken off the hour's air i stumble along as lost as i can bear
i've got a secret to share though you must already be aware: these arms are prison bars
Justin:
maybe someday i'll just say what i really want to say
and maybe someday i'll just shut up and lay down next to you
in my arms we'll tangle ourselves securely in all the beauty we see
and for back up we'll wrap your arms around us too
but don't think i'd let go anytime soon
i'd be too happy to not see it through
and in the mass of love we seek
our spines crooked but our breasts glowing aligned
lips locked with puzzled teeth
out of breath the world will seem much smaller in our mingled arms
with hands doing what hands do
and we'll touch everything and anything
then drink of every ounce of beauty we make
call it selfish or call it smart, either way
we'll have everything we need
caring, sinking
i adore you and you'll always be safe
these arms are prison bars
