World Undone

The day we walked away from each other
The plans of the universe were denied

We fell into the sky
As gravity blew us a million miles high

Sunflowers burst into bloom
Planted in the dark depths of the sea

North gave South the cold shoulder
And faced West instead

Forests burned blue
And the sun turned green with envy

Hard as rock, coal dust clumped in our throats
While diamonds shattered under our feet

Roses chased the stars out of the sky
Forcing their light to take root on the ground instead

We filled our lungs with emptiness
As oxygen turned into our poison

The day we walked away from each other
My heart was already running back to you
