I got inspired by a Swtichfoot song (embedded below) called Dare You To Move. I meant for the first two verses to be in the rythmn and style of the chorus of the song, but read it however you like.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You’re looking at stars
You’re talking to mars
You’re lighting the sky as you fall to sleep.
There’s nothing you can’t do
And there’s everything you can
Your holding the world in your palm as your falling to sleep.
Tonight
Oh, tonight
Your hiding your face from me
As you turn off the lights for me
You’re up in the sky before you see me
Again
I try for attention
But you never listen
Your head’s in the clouds and I can’t seem
To find you a ladder
Get down from that height!
I want you tonight
To understand your gonna get flipping dizzy up there
You're in your own world
I cannot break through
What’s going on, I thought I knew you...
