If it never gets better, I’ve got a puppy in my hand
If he never comes back, you’ve got my attention until the end
And even though you can’t feel it, you’re accepted
I’m on the other end of your phone, trying to change things

If in fact believing gave us things
Then I would close my eyes more often
Walking in darkness and with mumbles
She’d hear her name more often

~ Sakari

My tattoos start to lose their shading
How do I cry, instead of you
Revert your tears into your eyes
Hopefully for my heart’s sake
He says he loves you

The world keeps you busy from me
Why the sudden distraction
Am I a disturbance to your fate
Would your destiny be changed, if I actually kept you smiling

A blank canvas is all I can be
When my painter is nowhere to be found
This single girl can complete me
But she’s still hurt, over being single

We played in the rain, lyrics to your favorite song
An unheard band, we’re building, just to impress you
Outside your window, I’m just a guitarist, on your wet lawn
My friends did me this favor, came together, hear us through your walls

~ Sakari

Off a skyscraper we go
Back first into a falling night
Collapse towards my chest, you may
Keep pieces of you gathered, in my heart

~ Sakari

We’ve both been bruised by ink and symbols
And when the swelling goes down, we see the beauty and art
I’ve still got room on my skin for your name
No matter who steals you from me, I still have your experiences

~ Sakari

To blush, could I make you
Form a storm near me
Could I take you
And embrace this embarrassment
We both may feel
From this public scenario
I put us through

~ Sakari

How have I been resisting
Meetings in my head
Why do I
Puncture myself
Into reverse paradise

When all I want is your melody
It rains externally, but it doesn’t do that here
A weird head space, I’m not going anywhere
Can you come get me

I’m ready to give in

~ Sakari
