Gravity has got the best of me. She takes a hold, won’t…
““Gravity has got the best of me. She takes a hold, won’t let me go. She rips me into pieces. Coming home, I’m left alone with nothing but a box of mismatched socks and missing puzzle pieces. I’m lost but never found. I’m riding the wind and coming down until I’m swept away again. You’ve said cut ties. You’ve said count lies. Break your best intentions and leave no trace. All the hurt can be erased if you stay with me on the surface. I’m lost but never found. I’m riding the wind and coming down until I’m swept away again.””
