Everyday your heart stops
So we're sitting in the parking lot
Prayers you don't believe in
To let you be forgiven
But we can't see the stars
Or the reddish glow of Mars
So the streetlamps look like angels
And the darkness looks like God
Dandelions in the grass
Sprouting up through concrete cracks
Present if you need a snack
The sweetest weeds around
*
Yes, sometimes they have got thorns
But look at how well they adorn
Unyielding to relentless scorn
The entire fucking town
*
So maybe they're more independent
In where they wind up getting planted
Just as nature had intented
Pretty flowers on the ground
I thought that if I didn't tell you
Things would work out how I'd hoped
I think that thought was untrue
A perfect excuse not to cope
I don't know
You're the best of all of us
I hope you don't forget
A perfect dawn, heartbroken dusk
I love you more than fishnets
Is there a point where the universe becomes the stars?
Where the void becomes the night?
Reality is mostly dark
With only a few lights
The world is dying anyways
I don't know how you cope
Maybe once you've seen the day
Your nightmares all elope
I'm drinking a beer in my car
There's no stars in the sky
The universe becomes the stars
The void becomes the night
