Comet

You came in like the morning
Dreaming of the Moon
You floated through the window
Painted all in blue

Where do you go when the day turns black?
You're running away, but it pulls you back

Are there words you've never spun
At the center of your Sun
Twisting up your gravity?
Yeah, you keep it to yourself
Pull it tight, but I can tell
There are oceans in your reverie

The burning stars inside you
Are planning their escape

There's a dream in your heart, but it makes you shake
You stand at the door, but your moves won't make

Watch your body bend and break
See you burning up in space
Trying to come down again
Drain the air inside your lungs
Screaming for what never comes
While the lights change on sixth avenue

All the words you've never spun
At the center of your Sun
Twisting up your gravity
Don't you keep 'em to yourself
Honey, you and I can sail
Through the oceans in your reverie
