This Was Real

I was a fire burning brightly when he came along and extinguished me,
His water as powerful as the sea,
And I was so blinded by unexpected tides,
This was real.

I was alive living fully when she came along and inverted me,
Like a mother with arms open,
Set me free,
And I was so blinded by unexpected eyes,
This was real.

Looking into space isn’t easy,
When you’re dying,
Looking at your face isn’t easy,
When you’re crying over me,
Yesterday’s news came suddenly…

Looking into space isn’t easy,
When you’re dying,
Looking at your face isn’t easy,
When you’re crying over me.
