View Full Version : Platonic

Welcome to my blessed heart
ripped and stomped and broken apart
all for love

and the stairway to my pride,
splashes in messy directions
in a platonic interpretation

It’s better this way
but, it’s lonely down here
We had years to remain,
we had years left to love, didn’t we?
And it’s sad to know
how my life drifts from here
to know that I could have saved myself
from the depths of my fear
and pain

No justification, you can damn me
but you can’t hate me
love, let me let go of letting go

tear down my fortress of eternal flame
When the moon floats past your eyes
I’m letting a small bit of you go at a time

It’s better this way
but, it’s lonely down here
We had years to remain,
we had years left to love, didn’t we?
And it’s sad to know
how my life drifts from here
to know that I could have saved myself
from the depths of my fear
and pain

I’ll stay a lady of the flowers
and remain your place to dream
we had years left to love, didn’t we?

It’s better this way
but, it’s lonely down here
We had years to remain,
we had years left to love, didn’t we?
And it’s sad to know
how my life drifts from here
to know that I could have saved myself
from the depths of my fear
and pain
we had years left to love, didn’t we?

Sometimes, it never makes sense.

Sometimes, you can almost swear you've found the right one, then it's all over and you're left in a daze.

Thats love baby. Sometimes it hurts. But as always, time can heal the wounds.

Much love,

Kami.

Very good imagery here, Britt. I like the structure too - it works well. As ever, you've written a good lyric here.

But glad everyone enjoyed it.

That part really stood out for me because its completely something that I would think. "Its better this way, but its lonely down here"...dont we always somehow end up thinking that?
I love it! Beautful work. Cant wait to hear more!
