Our fire keeps us warm
But I can`t stop myself from thinking
How blue I`m going to feel
When you`ll leave, because
Why would you ever stay with the mess that I am?
There`s some part of me that hope
For it all to burn out as fast as the candles last night
And I would not have a chance to blow it out.
I`m seating here in the fright
by the window in the night
Aimlessly pointing at the stars
Tirelessly expecting midnight rain to flood
Will you stay then?
When all the fire will be put out?
Will you stay after that?
Soaked in the cold with me?
With each step we make closer to each other
With each part of me you touch
With each “there`s no going back the same” sign
I want to stop and freeze us at the moment we are now
and never think of what will be the end of us
Will you become the one
Who breaks my heart?
But you`re not the type who will keep you up all night
Not the type to kiss and lie
Not the "don`t know how to make you feel loved" type
Yeah, probably I`m the "there`s something wrong with me” type
So, now we can agree I`ll be the one
Who`ll break your heart.
I`m seating here in the fright
by the window in the night
Aimlessly pointing at the stars
Tirelessly expecting midnight rain to flood
Will you stay then?
When all the fire will be put out?
Will you stay after that?
Soaked in the cold with me?
I feel the smoke filling up my lungs
Is that everything finally going down?
Shit, no way, that was our dinner in the oven
That I`ve burned down to the ashes - it was all my fault.
So I spiral back to what a mess I am
"is the doomsday on my hands?"
while you’re wiping my tears away and
calling that pizza place where we met.
I`m seating here by your side
by the window in the night
Eating pizza and counting the stars
Tirelessly expecting midnight rain to flood
I hear the raindrops on the tin roof and
you saying three words in the dark:
“Wanna dance outside?”

I enjoy this style alot. Flows like butter
Thank you for your words!
Interesting writing nice words with nice flow .. especially like the repeat of the lines
‘ by the window in the night
Aimlessly pointing at the stars’
And really nice last line .
Thank you so much!
I love the build up to "wiping my tears away and calling that pizza place where we met". Someone seeing past the flaws we imagine we have. The last line is superb. Well done!
