Thunderstorms
Lyra Loom
If I could, I would love you till I fade
Like a wave that keeps on breaking just to stay
We were quiet in a loud room
While the tension started to bloom
Everybody realize
The shine between our eyes
You said you never saw it
But you knew it all along
Said you were waiting on me
While saying nothing's wrong
Are you running from the feeling
Or just scared of what is true?
Say you don't feel anything
But it shows in you
Don't tell me this is nothing
When it lives inside my bones
When your silence feels louder
Than everything you told
You run from every moment
That gets a little close
Don't call this just a feeling
When you turn me into
Thunderstorms
You said you never felt it
But your eyes don't lie
I've never seen someone so scared
Of what they feel inside
You pull me in like gravity
Then push me out to sea
You speak in constellations
But you feel in black and white
You almost let me touch you
Then you turn off all the lights
What are you so afraid of?
You don't have to say it
I already chose you
So why can't you just face it?
Don't tell me this is nothing
When it's burning in my veins
When you look at me
Like you're about to break the chains
When your hands give you away
And the air between us bends
I don't need you to explain
Why you hide
When I bring out
Your thunderstorms?
Everybody sees it
We just look away
Like if we don't name it
It will fade, baby
Did I love you too much
Or just more than you could hold?
I feel like a thunderstorm
And you hate losing control
Don't tell me this is nothing
When it lives inside my bones
When your silence feels louder
Than everything you told
You run from every moment
That gets a little close
Don't call this just a feeling
When you turn me into thunderstorms
Am I in your head
The way you're in mine?
You feel it sometimes
But you call it nothing
If I could
I would love you till I couldn't
But you run from everything
That ever felt like us
