about

"It does not do well to dwell on dreams and forget to live"- the all-mighty j.k rowling

sometimes when our eyes meet, I feel like we're playing imaginary characters; then I blink and the charade dissolves and I carry on, blistered by the dazzling sun

lyrics

Together
We were two astronauts
In a cardboard spaceship
Never
Taking off the ground, but it felt like flying
When your eyes fell onto mine

And I fell into you
Like a girl down a rabbit hole
The pictures were forming in my head
I followed that rabbit to my death
The longer I sat there crying
Tears of the lonesome were drowning
All those around me

Together
We had traveled far from home
But it never felt strange
With you beside me, but now I’m shrinking
Slipping from your grip
through the cracks of the city

And I fell into you
Like a girl down a rabbit hole
The pictures were forming in my head
I followed that rabbit to my death
The longer I sat there crying
Tears of the lonesome were drowning
All those around me

I’m in wonderland
It’s pleasant when I dream and you’re not there
Go on, take my pulse
No rest for the wicked or the unknown
