Now is the climax to the story

That gives the demons and angel purpose

They fly around while we are walking

And mold our emotions just to please them

I am cold, can you hear?

I will fly with no hope, no fear

And the ground taunts my wings

Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing

All we are is an isle of flightless birds

We find our worth in giving birth and stuff

We're lining our homes against winding roads

And we think the going is tough

We pick songs to sing, remind us of things that nobody cares about

And honestly, we're probably more suicidal than ever now

If you decide to live by what you think's wrong and what's right

Believe me, you'll begin to wish you were sleeping

Your weeping will creep in your head and you'll cry

But if we wake up every morning and decide what we believe

We can take a part our very heart and the light will set us free

I am cold, can you hear?

I will fly with no hope, no fear

And the ground taunts my wings

Plummet as I sing, plummet as I...

I am cold, can you hear?

I will fly with no hope, no fear

And the ground taunts my wings

Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing

How frustrating and so degrading

His time, we're wasting

As time will fly by and the sky will cry as light is fading

And he is waiting, oh so patiently

As we repeat the same routine as we will please comfortability

Please don't think about why you can't sleep in the evening

And please don't be afraid of what your soul is really thinking

Your soul knows good and evil, your soul knows both sides

And it's time you pick your battle, and I promise you this is mine

(I promise you)

It became a routine for Josh to show up to slam events and Tyler to meet him there. Tyler didn't always perform a piece on stage but he sat with Josh and listened to the others.

Tyler also picked up a habit of wanting coffee late at nights and walks under the stars.

Josh had no reason to say no.

They were walking through a park hand in hand, neither of them breaking the easy silence. It had become habit, comfort, for them without really either of them mentioning it. Josh had gone to slam poetry on a day where he wanted nothing to do with anyone, a day where his own depression was affecting him greatly but he felt like he'd made a promise to show up. In the end, Tyler was the only reason that got his feet to move. Tyler never knew in the end that Josh was having a bad day, he was never told and maybe he guessed it but he never voiced anything but even so, he was comforting. On their regular trip to coffee and walk Josh felt his own feelings start to dissipate. It was Tyler's doing without Tyler knowing.
